Exercise 10 - 2.0 technologies - Web 2.0 in City of Ryde Library

There is RSS Feeds in City of Ryde Library. RSS is an easy way to keep up with website updates without having to visit the website constantly. When a website is updated, the RSS feed will notify users and give users a link to the new content. This is a good way to know the announcement of availability of new books and promote events organized in the library.
I think blog is a good idea for library. The benefits of library blogs are: 
  • Blogs can reach customers anytime, anywhere. Blogs enhance  relationship of library and customers.
  • Library can create, update, and publish information on a blog from any computer that's connect to the internet.
  • Blogs can serve as discussion forum. Libraries get feedback of their services. Customers exchange ideas of books, and events.  
The library also need to develop web 2.0 technology in areas of local studies, children's, teenage/Youth, adult fiction and information/reference. I have some recommendations and please see exercise 11.
