Five Weeks to a Social Library
I’m in week 3 of this fabulous online course, Five Weeks to a Social Library, where we are learning to use/integrate/leverage many social software tools such as blogging, social bookmarking and rss feeds, wikis, Flickr, etc. I’m learning a lot and developing a better understanding of how these tools work. Best of all, I’m learning and conversing with other librarians while doing it! At some point you’ll want to check it out as there are some wonderful resources to learn from. There’s a Social Library Lurkers wiki for those following along, if you’d like to lurk yourself.
In the sidebar you’ll notice a Grazr widget, where I have put feeds from some of the blogs of the course organizers. Something new I learned how to do in the course and successfully implemented today!

Do share what you learned! I’m just finishing my LIS course in Computer Applications in School Media Center. I’ve got about 2 weeks left in the course. If you wouldn’t mind perhaps you could share some of what you learned with me and I could bring it back to my class. We’ve talked about using Web 2.0 technology in the school library media center. I’m sure my class would love to know other ways that they could integrate that technology in the school library setting.
