Library 2.0 articles in OCLC's report

I am most excited about Wendy Schultz's future-projecting article. Library 4.0?!! I appreciated her point that Library 4.0 would incorporate Library 1.0-3.0, not be something completely different. I think that's where people start to panic, when they fear that everything's changing. But the principles and products and services should still be there, just enhanced.

The OCLC report was presented nicely, in brief paragraphs with subtitles and generously sized photos of the authors in silly poses. There's great content in these OCLC reports, and the attractiveness factor means that more people are likely to read it.

I was also happy to explore North Carolina State's Endeca-based catalog, which seems to be a much more useful way to explore the library's resources--to enter a keyword, and see which categories the results fall under, and continue to narrow the results until you get something you want. It obviously needs some refining, but there's so much promise there.
