Flickr

I wasn't sure the first time that I posted the image that it worked, so I tried again. I realised that I had to accept the terms and conditions for it to work. I hope it has worked - I can only see a white box. No image. Oh well, I can always try again.

The image I chose is called Storm Troopers at the Library http://www.flickr.com/photos/tngmalone/1163442950/. Our most popular PlayStation game is the Star Wars game and the children love to play it. We also have fans amongst the Library staff. A Star Wars event for the children might be something that they will enjoy - it is something to think about.

(Hmm, I wonder if a Storm Trooper patrol in the Library will discourage bad behaviour??)

My first post

It was pretty easy to create a blog (although trying to think of a name took me a while), but as I was due for my desk shift I signed out before I posted anything. After my shift, I tried to go back to my blog but wasn't sure how (and I had forgotten to write down the address). After going back and forth several times, I went back to the learning 2.0 site and continued to read all the way to the bottom. Thank God there was "How do do you get back to your blog" and here I am.
I have heard about blogs, youtube and the rest, but I didn't really know what it is about. I hope Learning 2.0 will teach about all these things and that I will be able to use these to help promote our library service. I must say I am impressed with the Sutherland Library blog - just by viewing it I learnt there was new technology in Audio books available, which I have of course forgotten the name of, but it is on their blog, and had a link to their Library catalogue. This made me think that it might be possible to put booklists of new items on Library blogs and have links to library catalogue records. Hooray to learning something new.
