Toward Academic Library 2.0: Development and Application of a Library 2.0 Methodology : A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S. degree. November, 2006. 49 pages. Abstract: Recently, librarians have struggled to understand their relationship to a new breed of Web services that, like libraries, connect users with the information they need. These services, known as Web 2.0, offer new service models, methods, and technologies that can be adapted to improve library services. Additionally, these services affect library users’ information seeking behaviors, communication styles, and expectations. The term Library 2.0 has been introduced into the professional language of librarianship as a way to discuss these changes. This paper works to establish a theoretical foundation of Library 2.0 in academic libraries, or Academic Library 2.0.

"One librarian's serious examination of online communities has expanded the library's concept of "space" beyond the physical and into the digital. Read about how in this month's member spotlight."

Michael Stephens interviewed me about my Master's Paper on Academic Library 2.0 for the ALA TechSource Blog.

"...well, they were nice ………. but not within ‘cooee‘ of what you can read in Michael Habib’s Masters Thesis for his MLS..."

"I've generally found Michael Habib to be one of the more thoughtful bloggers posting about Library 2.0, so I was eager to read his Master's paper after he posted it a couple of weeks ago. He's done a particularly fine job. He comes up with a definition of "Library 2.0" that is logical, internally consistent, and that deftly avoids the problems that I've discussed in my two recent posts."

"I met Michael Habib when I was down at UNC Chapel Hill last year and I think now we’re associated via various social networks. I caught his blog post Academic Library 2.0 Concept Models and I think you’ll like it if you’ve been wondering where social software fits in an academic library environment. Hot Venn Diagrams! Available for hire 2.0 librarian!"

This event was the highlight of President-Elect of the ALA Leslie Burger's visit to UNC-Chapel Hill. Her visit was hosted by the Student Chapter of the ALA.

Cites my Academic Library 2.0 Concept Model. "In some ways, it is a virtual reality for libraries, a Web manifestation of the library as place. A library's presence on the Web in Library 2.0 includes the presence of that library's constituency and utilizes the same applications and technologies as its community, a concept Habib (2006) recognizes in a very useful model for Library 2.0 in regards to academic libraries."
