After reading these articles I have decided to focus on a few articles which include "Into a New World of Librarianship" by Michael Stephens, "Away from the "Icebergs"" by Rick Anderson and "To More Powerful Ways to Cooperate" by Chip Nilges. These articles have convinced me that I need to change my focus to how web 2.0 tools can assist me in engaging students and teachers to locate the information that they need. Each article points out thoughtful ideas which I plan on using when redesigning my library as well as the tools we are using for this tutorial. Cooperation, collaboration and change are words to live by for the web 2.0 tools. You can't be afraid to try something new or ask the students how they did something or show them a better way to locate information.....its what we do as librarians.
I also read the artcle "A Rural School District Shows How One New Service in 1992 Put in Motion a Steady Wave of Library Support" by George Bishop. Although it focuses on embedding ILL into the library program it also shares several ways that you can embed technology into your library program.
