Workshop Web 2.0 and libraries

Italian version

Web 2.0 has posed a number of challenges for the library and marks a transition within the library world in the way that services are delivered to users.
In the course of this seminar, organised by CASPUR/CIBER in collaboration with AIB Lazio, AIDA, CILEA, FAO and University of Rome Three Library System we will seek to describe how libraries have responded to the opportunities offered by Web 2.0 applications and how organisations can best exploit the potential which Library 2.0 can provide.

Keynote speaker, Gerry McKierrnan, will describe current trends and changing scenarios, while other speakers will describe how Library 2.0 features have been deployed with a special focus on the Italian context.
