[LIS-Forum] Librarians' Duties: - BLOGS, WIKIs, WEBCASTS / PODCASTS, IM, RSS and WEB
What would be the duties of Next Generation Librarians? Definitely it would include the following: --Distribution of content via digital tools such as blogs and wikis for the library system website. --Develop and deliver library instruction through podcasts and multimedia webcasts. --Promote community via new technologies within the library and virtually via IM and other emerging communication mechanisms. --Enhance Library's web presence with current content and methods for distribution such as RSS. --Investigate and implement new technologies that may enhance the Library System's web presence. Well, if you need some evidence to belief what I am talking about then visit the Wayne State University Library System requirements < http://www.ala.org/ala/acrlbucket/candrlnews/caropps/february2006/NextGenera...
I can add some more to above: --Establishing and maintaining Open Access Institutional Repositories. --Facilitating Open Access Publishing. SO, ARE YOU READY TEACHERS / STUDENT LIBRARIANS? I keep my hands dirty and tab on these technologies at my Blog at http://sukhdev.blogspot.com --Sukhdev Singh
