#15 On Library 2.0 & Web 2.0 ...

I remember reading about the notion that libraries of the future have been around for awhile now. Architecturally they have changed in their design and don't have walls lined with books. They have had "spaces" for people and computers, books and magazines have been interspersed throughout the building. Library2.0 is like an extension of those"spaces" being available online.

makes an interesting point though " people will still need experienced tour guides" and "People will collect librarians rather than books—the ability not just to organise, but also to annotate and compare books and other information sources, from a variety of useful perspectives".
