Hello

Hello, I created this blog for the ALSC program 21 things, which discusses Web 2.0 and how children's librarians (or any librarians) can use Web 2.0 in libraries.

Here is a little info about me:
I am a new librarian who just graduated at the end of April from the University of Michigan. I am currently living in Chicago and will be (soon, just found a job today!) working part time in a library in the Chicago area . As a note, everything in this blog reflects my own thoughts and experiences and not that of the libraries I work and intern at.

My experience with Web 2.0:
I am comfortable and familiar with Web 2.0, but I want to know more beyond the basics and especially how to link these technologies to libraries. I know how to use Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, LibraryThing, Second Life (just the basics) and Flikr. So, I am very excited about this project and this blog will discuss my progress, thoughts, and adventures using Web 2.0!
