Beyond Web 2.0: Taking the social read-write Web to the enterprise level

Over the past few years, many libraries have eagerly embraced Web 2.0 technologies. Blogs, wikis and social engagement with patrons have become commonplace. These new approaches to the Web are no longer considered new and cutting edge and the Web is changing at a much faster rate. It's time to consider what comes next in the world of Web technologies.

Breeding will give his thoughts on how libraries can take Web 2.0 technologies to the next level and integrate these technologies into their core automation infrastructure to better support their strategic missions. Up until now, Web 2.0 technologies have been implemented mostly through informal processes. As the Web 2.0-inspired technologies mature, they need to become more central to a library's strategic mission and become integrated into its fundamental infrastructure. Tune in for Marshall Breeding's view of life beyond Web 2.0.
