The Lost Symbol

OK, here’s our latest test book.
Today, at release, the Kindle version of Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol was outselling hard copies for a while.
Interesting.
This looks like a good book to promote public libraries.
I’d love to see someone do a GPS or geocaching game in their library symbol. I wonder what the mysterious symbol for libraries would be . . . ? You could even partner with other historic sites around town.
Hmmmm. (finger to forehead)

  1. Hi Stephen,
    Just a question. Have you made any tools for testing knowledge of librarians regarding library 2.0 tools? Thanks and more power.

    Not really. I’d say the simplest test is to see their portfolio and have them show you their sites – Facebook, LinkedIn, Ning, Twitter, blog(s), MySpace, Skype, etc. If the answer is zilch then you know.
    What one’s do you care about? Look at the person’s laptop and interview them. If they’re not using the tools and can’t show you a post or wall, then they’re not really there. It’s easier to pass a paper/online test than to prove it.
