My notes
It would be very interesting to know about the new digital initiatives, delivery options and Web resources make for increasingly challenging workplace interactions, especaily in the library science environment.

Here, I guess Internet librarians able to excel at embracing change and love innovation. Web 2.0, Library 2.0. Learning 2.0 and other 2.0s impact not only what we do but also how we do it. We can communicate across national borders, collaborate across time zones, and collect amazing amounts and types of information. At the same time, they must ensure that they do not race so far ahead of the constituencies that the users can’t follow.

The necessity of establishing ROI benchmarks, ascertaining real value, and sharing knowledge on funding tactics goes hand-in-hand with learning new technologies, training end-users and implementing creative solutions to real problems.

Will I be sumbiting a paper?
I will be submit a paper that discuss about Business Library creating a virtual presence to inspire to be a strategic info-concierge;  individual info object is a self sustaining, self contained node unit, can be content or service, in any format. The connectivity can also be attained by many ways and not necessarily in a single way such as evolving a mesh (web) of information.

Any Facebook affiliation?
Yes, here the url: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=22034496328.
