Hi All
I am currently reading the latest book by David Weinberger - "Everything is Miscellaneous" (check http://www.everythingismiscellaneous.com/) and in this there is a great chapter called "The Geography of Knowledge" that talks about Melvil Dewey and the Dewey Decimal System, and how this doesnt quite fit into our web 2.0 world... using Amazon as an example I thought it might be worth sharing with colleagues here, as the themes about how libraries can effectively deal with Web 2.0 and the methods of organising and shaping information associated with it, are very relevant. Best wishes Steven
Do you find this valuable?

I've added information under the Web2.0 heading about a proposed development to the public library website in Newcastle upon Tyne. Please take a look and let me know what you think!

I'm a wiki 'fresher'! Am looking forward to enlightenment at the conference.
I would love to know any positives of Bebo and MySpace for example, rather than the basic posy photos, and perpetuation of lazy language! Which campus is our conference being held at? |
