Never stop learning

I've started this blog as part of the exercises for Learning 2.0, which is a project begun by Helene Blowers, Public Services Technology Director of the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenberg County to encourage staff "to experiment and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are reshaping the context of information on the Internet today."

My plan is to work through the Learning 2.0 exercises each week and then continue to add things that I learn beyond their "23 Things You Can Do On The Web" and (hopefully) make use of in my own library and my own learning. It fits in with my current interest in (and maybe dissertation topic on)the uses to which scholars and soon-to-be scholars are putting advances in communication technology to improve and broaden scholarly communication.
