Bob Kosovsky replied to Richard Bernier's discussion 'Lost in a Sea of Web 2.0'

Bob Kosovsky replied to LeAnn Suchy's discussion 'Google Wave?'

Alright team, this video was made after I made some OPAC widgets for a few libraries who asked for them. These widgets allow patrons to add an access point (search box) to your library's catalog from any of their websites such as blogs, myspace,...

Hi. I couldn't find any mention of this in the discussions already, but it looks like we may get a few more widgets for Worldcat soon, as they've got a mashup event planned in Amsterdam in May 09. Cheers - Gary

Hi, I know you posted this discusion some time ago now, and things have moved on, widgets are fairly common place now, but I would be interested to hear from anyone using them about how popular they are these days. We (Warwick Uni Library) have ...

At 9:20am on July 11, 2007, Lou Wetherbee said…: Bob, I'm glad to see this group and to find you on it. I'm currently in the midst of preparing to teach the second phase of a Leadership program for a library in Florida. It has been a lot of fun to work with colleagues to develop leadership skills. They are a great group. Sure miss my friends at NYPL.

At 11:14pm on July 7, 2007, Julie Sayles said…: Hi Bob, I added two questions to the survey which may make it a bit more meaningful. This is a learning experience for me...I'm considering this survey in the pretest stage, so I'll be continually revamping it. Thanks again for your collaboration.

At 11:01pm on July 7, 2007, Julie Sayles said…: Bob, because of your comments, I plan on adding these two comments to the survey. Because this is a partial pretest, I will be continually revising the survey. Of course, this doesn't make it valid, but I appreciate everyone's help in being involved in the learning process!

Thanks for joining the Library Leadership discussion group. Your clarity, compassion, and keen insight will be welcome there. I look forward to your participation.

So, why the pre-1940 cut-off for pop music?
