Library 2.0

This network is for Library 2.0 Stuff

Hello! I'm fairly new to all this, although I've been working in a library for quite a few months now. I work in an academic research library in central London and it's great. I only have about three months left in this job though before I am cast out into the big sea of unemployment, so I am on a mission to learn everything I can about Web 2.0 in libraries in the hope of giving my CV the edge... and, obviously, staying up-to-date with my job!

I think that's definitely the right approach.

In my experience, being able to say that you have experience with training/teaching is great too, so if you can get your hands on something like that at your current workplace, that might be an idea as well.

Thanks! Training/teaching is something that I hadn't thought of, but I can see how that would really be a plus. I'd be interested to know exactly what people do look for when they interview for an entry-level (ish) library job. I'm doing an MA next year by distance learning, so as I won't be qualified, I feel I need to compensate with something.
