Comments on Michael Casey Podcast
I finally got to listen to Michael Casey's podcast that was created for the participants of ALA Library 2.0 (ALAL2). He did make a couple comments that really tied together some of our discussions here in ALAL2.
First, Casey pointed out, as many others have, that Library 2.0 is about change. But, he went one step further and defined how he saw "change":
- Change to reach new people
- Change to reach undefined audiences
- Requires continuous evaluation and change for success
- Certain changes do not fit all libraries
His thoughts on an internal staff blog were very interesting as well. The internal employee blog went beyond the expectations of increasing involvement and communication by developing new communication pathways, building trust, and giving people ownership in their concerns and/or comments.- Change to reach undefined audiences
- Requires continuous evaluation and change for success
- Certain changes do not fit all libraries
UPDATE: I had to delete some links to sources that no longer exist.
