For those who say Libraries are about books…

OK, here’s a link that must be followed by those who cannot see the link between Web 2.0 and books.
BOOKS TOOLBOX: 50+ Sites for Book Lovers
Here’s the categories:
Book Reviews
Book Communities
Publishing
Book Search & Exchange
Others
There are the germs of many great ideas and features for library portals and websites here. We got books. Let’s make sure we give our users and customers what they want. They want communities of readers, recommendations, lists, and reviews. If you can talk to someone regularly about books you can write a short review and post it to a blog with the cover and more. You might even involve your frends groups and clubs too.
If you’re doing a great job on books, book clubs, reading groups, summer reading and more – you’re my heroes.
If you’re putting the whole program on steriods to be community relevant beyond the front door using apps like these, you’re a superhero.
Libraries are about books but we’re also about so much more.
