Welcome to the Virginia Beach Public Library's Learning 2.0 program and blog. Chances are if you've found your way here, you're either:
- a member of the VBPL's staff who's participating in the Learning 2.0 challenge,
- interested in learning about and playing around with some new Web 2.0 tools that will help you expand your information literacy toolbox, or
- are just interested in earning a cool USB MP3 player
Either way, we're glad you're here!
Learning 2.0 is an online learning program that encourages VBPL staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the Web that are changing the way people, society and Librarians access information and communicate with each other.
Over the course of the twelve weeks, this blog will highlight “30 things” - discovery exercises to help you become familiar with blogging, RSS feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, social networking, and video and image hosting sites.
To familiarize yourself with this project, be sure to read the More About this program page. In addition, there is a FAQ page, too. This page should answer most of your questions about this program. If not, then please add your question to the page as a comment. We'll comment back with an answer.
So fasten your seat belts, grab your mouse and get ready for a discovery adventure. And remember, it's OK to play in the library and have fun!
Be sure to tune in on Monday, November 5th for the next set of "things" or discovery items ... or better yet, subscribe to this blog's RSS feed. By doing so, you'll receive instructions for the next "thing" directly in your RSS reader.
