Web 2.0

Change is good. However not everyone likes change. We have a core group of older people who have never heard or even care about web/library 2.0. Everything is geared towards the "Google Generation". But we in the library world have to take care of the loyal patrons who still like to read a good book. I like technology (as long as it works) as much as the next person, but I still want to hold a book while I read it. I don't want to read or listen to my books on the computer.
Libraries need to find a middle ground for the older patrons who just want to visit and pick out a good book and the "google generation" who want to do everything on the internet. If someone finds that happy medium let me know.

Happy Holidays.
