Thing 22: Developing your own 23 Things for your library

I do believe that the 23 Things Web 2.0 technology program is something that ALL library staff should be required to complete. There were so many things that I had no clue about, much less even knew existed, and this program has caught my technologically un-savvy skills up to speed!! This program could be tailored by a library staff member (someone with better technological skills than I have!) to teach his/her library staff the finer points of this program. Another thought is that we should share this information with our library patrons. We can’t expect our library patrons to follow our library’s Twitter, RSS feeds, or podcasts if they have no clue about this technology. So not only do we as library professionals need to educate our staff, but we also need educate our library patrons.
