Library 2.0

This is one of the best descriptions for the general public I have seen for library 2.0. It is from the Rapid City Public Library's website. Their director, Greta Chapman is one of two people who have had a profound effect on my development as a librarian and an information professional.

Libraries have to evolve continuously to keep up with the changing needs of their users.

The new Sunday Library=Borders!

Since funding is so low in Longmont and the surrounding cities, people are flocking to the local Borders to get their reading fix as well as their gourmet coffee fix. I know this is nothing knew, but for some reason I find this depressing today. How many of these people would be at their local library if they had the opportunity? Why should they go?

Greetings Holli, 

I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight.

If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Mike McQueen
