Web 2.0 and libraries: best practices for social software, by Michael Stephens

This is a publisher's listing for a book available from ALA, and the sample pages I looked at were interesting enough that I think the library should buy this book, and also his followup book-- Web 2.0 & libraries: trends and technologies. I'll pass the information along to Gail.

There was a silly thing in the author's blog (http://tametheweb.com/)-- he asked readers to vote for the shirt and tie he should wear when he gave a talk, and then he showed which one won.

There is a link in the author's blog to another blog called iLibrarian which included a very interesting article about creating subject headings for blogs. I've bookmarked it and I'll read it next week. http://oedb.org/blogs/ilibrarian/

Michael Stephens posted a reply to our own Shantasmmagoria, with info on where to get the articles in this publication. Check out the comments on that blog.
