I have decided to re-name my blog. I really enjoyed the name futurtastic magicology, but it didn't seem "library" enough. Perhaps I will try to use that for something else. Something more fun than libraries (if there is such a thing).
I had originally tried to change it to library school-o-rama, but I couldn't get it to switch. I think this will be fine enough for now.

In Conclusion: My Conclusion for the 1311 Tech Article Review
Chad and Miller (2005) begin their argument by discussing problems that are facing libraries today, such as the changing expectations of library users. They continue by describing the growing popularity of Web 2.0 applications. Furthermore, they discuss whether or not these types of applications could benefit libraries, and finally, they discuss how libraries might employ Web 2.0 applications, thus becoming Library 2.0. This argument reflects evidence, opinions, and examples from external sources, including the library literature, and although Chad and Miller offer a well organized argument in “Do Libraries Matter? The Rise of Library 2.0”, they could have supported it better by utilizing a greater number of resources.
