A Technology to Improve Libraries for Patrons

I think that blogs will most improve libraries for patrons because by they are social by nature, and they bring with them so many epistemological possibilities. Blogs give patrons an opportunity to access information in a way that is fast, fecund, powerful and, for the most part, reliable. This is especially so when librarians are engaged in taking steps to promote the most authoritative of these blogs. Blogs give patrons a chance to interact with one another (and others outside the library), express opinions, debate topics and engage in a free-flow of information inquiry and receipt. They can also give information about accessing knowledge through the library in other ways. Blogs can be very good at distributing information about events and services.
