Library 2.0

I believe that libraries are not just about books any more. I've noticed that patrons often check out movies, audio books, and even game packs for "Leap Pad," and many of the patrons come in just to use a computer. So I believe more user friendly software will be welcomed by most patrons. I feel that Library 2.0 is aiming for this objective and I think that adapting to an ever more electronicly focased world is a good idea. I also believe that there will always be those people who will want access to hard copy fiction and nonfiction books. I think the challange will be integrateing those needs at a pace that closely matches the advancements in technology without overwhelming those who are unfamilliar with these changes.
