Inspiration

Some interesting things I've come across during my 23 Things journey are:

  • "Library 2.0 and beyond: Innovative Technologies and Tomorrow's User" (ed. Nancy Courtney, 2007).
Articles discuss Web 2.0 technologies and their application in libraries. Easy to understand and provides good basic introductions as well as discussing their impact / potential in libraries.

  • "No One Cares What You Had for Lunch: 100 Ideas for your Blog" (Margaret Mason, 2007).
Written by a professional journalist and serial blogger, the author offers tips and ideas on what to include in your blog.

Both these books are in the Brisbane City Council Library collection and are worth a peek.

During the podcasting module, I came across this site for Worthington Libraries which has podcasts of nursery rhymes, children's songs etc (useful stuff for storytime and Babes, Books & Rhymes).
