Either way. we're glad you're here!!


Learning 2.0 is online learning program that encourages staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people, society and libraries access information and communicate with each other.


Over the course of the next eight and a half weeks, this website will highlight "23 Things" and discovery exercises to help staff become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, and video and image hosting sites.


To familiarize yourself with this project, be sure to read the Learning 2.0 welcome page. The FAQs should answer most of your questions about this program. If not, then please add your question to the FAQ page as a comment.

So fasten your seat belts, grab your mouse and get ready for a discovery adventure. and remember, for this learning experience it's OK to play in the library and have fun!
