wikipedia

Here's the first review for the blog. I picked the Wikipedia article, "Library 2.0" because I thought it would a good introduction in simple language for this old electronic dinosaur.

I got a little cross-eyed when I got to "key principles." Is constant change a good thing? What's wrong with the security of slow and considered evolution? As a library user I don't WANT to be harnessed. And I'm not at all sure that "radical trust" belongs in any part of a library plan; it sounds too . . . radical. Too unstructured. Too much of a free-for-all.

I like the idea of continuing to "examine and improve services"--that sounds like something a library should do.
