Brilliant voice
When researching Web 2.0 and School Library 2.0 a consistent voice has been Joyce Valenza’s. I have always admired her school website and have found other sites that she has made. But this particular page really rang bells for me:
How my life has changed/How my life will change
She started out a little before I did and has been several steps ahead of me in her thinking and daily practice. I found this page so interesting that I had to think about how far I have come.
She says: “We cannot expect to assume a leadership role in information technology and instruction, we cannot claim any credibility with students, faculty, or administrators if we do not recognize and thoughtfully exploit the information and communication paradigm shifts of the past two years.”
Yes, the pace of change is accelerating and we need to think what kind of library spaces we are going to manage in the future. Will the library be a physical space at all?
Anyway, read her page to see where she thinks we are going.
