Did anyone have a chance to attend Stephen Abram's presentation on Special Libraries 2.0 back in November? It was sponsored by SLA-MN. If you didn't attend, here is a link to Stephen's website and his powerpoint presentation. http://stephenslighthouse.sirsidynix.com/archives/2007/12/.
(Either search the blog for SLA Minnesota Chapter or scroll down to December 27, 2007 and look for the SLA Minnesota Chapter heading.)
Too bad there is no audio for this presentation. I am wondering if it is similar to the Library as Place: Physical Realms, Virtual Possibilities presentation he did for Minitex on May 15, 2006. The Minitex presentation can be still be viewed (with audio!) at this link: http://www.minitex.umn.edu/events/highlights/2006/refSymposium/.
While we are on the subject on Minitex, their November Reference Notes (newsletter) mentioned a series of articles on "Web 2.0 and Libraries: Part 2, Trends and Technologies." in Library Technology Reports (v43 n5). Apparently, these articles are a follow-up to a previous issue of LTR (v42 n4) which looked at "Web 2.0 and Libraries: Best Practices for Social Software." You can view the info on page 4 of Minitex Reference Notes at this link: http://www.minitex.umn.edu/events/highlights/2006/refSymposium/. You can also read the articles mentioned in Minitex Reference Notes by accessing the Professional Collection of the ELM database.
Oh (and before I forget) Discovery Exercise #18 of SPPL 2.0 asked "What does [Library 2.0] mean to you?".... I'll let you know in a later post.
