Searching for blogs of interest can be intimidating if you do not know where to look. The information provided on the NEFLIN 23 newsletter provided some great tips on finding blogs that are of interest to me. Thank you for posting that information.

Library 2.0?

Library 2.0, I have to admit that when I first heard the term I wondered what it meant. As I have read and followed all of the talk I admit to being nervous about all of the technology and I wondered how it would affect the Library but more importantly I wondered how it would affect me and my job. I have read several articles about Library 2.0 and my perspective has started to change. I admit that at first I felt totally and completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of material that was being discussed and I wondered about its application in a library setting. After reading and researching the Library 2.0 concept I admit that I am still a little bit nervous but my nervousness is being replaced by curiousity and determination. I am eagerly looking forward to seeing how these technologies are going to shape the future of libraries. I am looking forward to implementing them in my library as well as in my personal life. I must admit if someone would have told me 2-3 years ago that I would being using anything besides e-mail and my cell phone I would have thought that they had lost their mind. But as the saying goes, "live and Learn" and I have a lot of both to do .

Setting up a blog

I am not a real techie type of person but I did set up my blog. I followed the directions that were on the registration and it really wasn't difficult. I am looking forward to learning about the different technologies that are available as I participate in the 23 Things @ NEFLIN.

Monday

Well, this week is going to be an interesting one. I a in the office today and Then I will be in Tallahassee on Tuesday and Wednesday for the New Library Director's Orientation and then back to work on Thursday and Friday. While I am in Tallahassee I am going to look at an Indian Dugout Canoe that was found in our area. I am going to take some pictures and try to get an idea on the size because it will soon be on permanent display in our Library.
