Darien Library Hosts Web 2.0 Workshop

  

Librarians from across the state convened in Darien today to attend a Web 2.0 Workshop, featuring guest presenters Jenny Levine (theshiftedlibrarian.com) and Michael Stephens (tametheweb.com). Levine and Stephens are leaders in the Web 2.0 movement, which focuses on practical new technologies for user-centered services in all types of libraries. Co-sponsored by the Darien Library and the Connecticut Library Consortium, the workshop drew over 40 library professionals interested in harnessing the power of new technologies to better serve their library communities. Among the technologies discussed were blogging, RSS feeds, instant messaging, and Flickr. You can see some of these exciting technologies in action by visiting our home page.
