Welcome!

Welcome to the UCI Libraries’ Learning 2.0 Program.

Building on the Public Services summer series of brown bag discussions, "Continuing the Conversation about Libraries and Librarians in a Web 2.0 World.," the Public Services and Collections Divisions are sponsoring a program, UCI Libraries’ List of 10 Things or So, for staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people and libraries access information and communicate with each other.

Beginning November 1, 2007, and over the course of the next sixteen weeks, this website will highlight “10 Things or So” with Discovery Exercises to help you become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, online applications, and video and image hosting sites.

To familiarize yourself with this program, be sure to read the About This Program(FAQ) page. These FAQs should answer most of your questions about this program. If you don't see your question answered, just add it to the FAQ page as a blog comment. If you have questions along the way about particular exercises, leave a comment on the blog post for that "Thing". The Learning 2.0 Team will comment back and add a post to the weekly tips blog.

As we learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people and libraries access information and communicate with each other, we will engage in ongoing discussions about how these new technologies can be used by the UCI Libraries.

So get ready for a discovery adventure… this should be lots of fun!
