I was glad to note via Slashdot today that I am not the only one sick of the Web 2.0 term. I am equally disenchanted with the corollary Library 2.0 term. It may look slick and “with it” especially in proposals for conferences and the like, but as a way of describing recent developments, it leaves me cold. Let’s focus on user needs, on bringing the library to the user’s space (not just the other way around), on building a two way dialogue with users, of making library data work harder and in multiple ways. But please, don’t categorize all of this under the Library 2.0 meme any more.
