Libraries come in all shapes and sizes. Loading photos of your library to Flickr can provide you with unlimited PR to the world! Is a photo of your library on Flickr? Use Flickr to promote your library’s services, programs, and anything else that makes your library interesting!

Library 2.0 books
Two of the first and most original thinkers on Library 2.0 introduce the essential concepts and offer ways to improve service to better meet the changing needs of 21st century library users. Describing a service model of constant and purposeful change, evaluation and updating of library services, and user participation, the book both outlines the theoretical underpinnings of Library 2.0 and provides practical advice on how to get there. From incorporating technology to reaching the long tail, from getting buy-in to maintaining momentum, all aspects of Library 2.0 are covered.
