Library 2.0
Libraries are evolving. Once a place of written facts which were quickly outdated, today it is an up to the minute research facility! What librarians need to teach today is how to EFFECTIVELY research. The information available at our fingergtips in a library can literally fill volumes. We need to teach students to narrow their focus and to verify the information they find. The great thing about research today is that it is available to anyone with an Internet connection! It is particularly exciting for those of us who grew up with our families' outdated set of World Book Encyclopedia.
