I do look at other blogs and post comments. This week it is interesting in looking at all the new technology that people are finding and letting them know how cool their findings are.
I have seen Wiki's before. I just never have tried adding or changing a Wiki. I tend to use Wikipedia often. It's more helpful to me. I see where you can edit. But never have attempted. However for this exercise I learned that it is possible to change the content of a site. I added my blog name to the ihcpl wiki. It was not hard. I will have to go back and explore some more. I like the idea that many people are adding suggestions for books, movies, and etc.
I like the idea that services are updated and reevaluated constantly. I think that change is good. Everything evolves around the patrons. If patrons want or need a certain item. With new technology it is possible to help the patron. I believe that one day there will be set up like Netflix. Now you don't have to go rent a movie it can be sent to you. So if libraries go to this type of system. It could be consider new for libraries. I know we have ILL but this would be different. Most people look on the internet at home rather than go to a library. I think patrons would like the idea that reserves could be mailed to them. I'm not a librarian but I think that the new generation of librarians accept changes and have ideas of their own. Patrons can already put there own reserves then come in and check the items out themselves with the self checkouts. I have seen so many changes with technology, everyday it is something new. I like change. Change is also a challenge to others but with the right training change will make a difference.
Okay I claimed my blog. I will see how this works. I kind of understand it. I was able to find other participants with the iHCPL search. This site was some what interesting.
