Thing 5 - Share Your Thoughts

Michael Stephens - I liked these comments on "User-centered libraries breakdown barriers and allow users access wherever they are: home, work, commuting, school, or at the library. This involves users from the get go in planning and launching services based on their needs. This librarian asks what new technologies or new materials users need. This librarian proposes building projects and involves users in designing those places. This librarian does not create policies and procedures that impede users’ access to the library. This librarian tells users how resources and funds will be expended. Decisions and plans are discussed in open forums and comments are answered. This makes the library transparent."

Thing 2 - 7.5 Habits

The easiest habit is Accepting Responsibility for my own Learning I am very willing to ask for help or find directions to read.

THe hardest habit is to Use Technology to Your Own Advantage. I have to learn a lot of things that are at first difficult but become eaiser with use.
