Week #6

Del.icio.us is another useful tool. I like having all of my favorite sites accessible from any computer.

I can see how Technorati could be beneficial to a lot of people; however, I don't anticipate using it personally. Again, like so many of the things I'm learning through this program, It's interesting and good to be aware of.

Regarding the future of libraries, I think HCPL is doing a fantastic job "avoiding the 3 iceburgs" Rick Anderson discusses. Our website is easy to navigate and allows patrons access to a lot of information from anywhere. The only time most patrons encounter a problem if is they have blocks on their card or if it needs to be renewed. The librarians at my branch take into consideration the amount of information available online when reviewing our collection and helping patrons.
