Thing #15: Library 2.0

Like Chip Nilges (who discussed the subject in his article, "To more powerful ways to cooperate [sic]", I've found that the philosophy of "Library 2.0" has largely served to revolutionize the way that libraries view one another, customers, and the distribution of information. One of the fundamental principles of the whole "Web 2.0" concept is that rather than providing information itself, the goal of the institution (be it a website or a library) is to provide the means and/or infrastructure by which to access it.
