Week 1

OCLC Report:
-The new vocabulary was helpful. I learned a lot about the world of blogs and the influence they are having on our culture. 
-I never would have thought to relate the booming business of selling ringtones and wallpapers to the changes in libraries. It brought up an interesting point.

Clifford Lynch:
-Before this article, I had never thought about the differences between Information Literacy and Information Technology Literacy. 
-With the way technology keeps progressing at a fast pace, it is hard to keep up to date with all the new advancements. It also makes it even harder to help those who are just now being introduced to computers and trying to bridge that gap.

Jason Vaughn:
-The Lied Library seems amazing. It seems to have everything a college student would need to make studying and writing papers easier. Its obvious that a lot of time and effort went into creating a helpful environment. The upkeep of the library must be draining though. The constant need to make sure everything is up to date and functional seems pretty daunting.
