Blog Reflection # 2

I have taken online Library courses such as LIB1, LIB2, and LIB3. So by taking LIB204 is more harder for me and from the past reading I was kind of confused . There is so much to read and the understanding the Library 2.0. I feel that libraries is the place where the patrons mainly use computer for entertainment, educational, resume, and job search. Five years from now, you’ll be seeing a lot of computers will be put up, because right now there is not enough computers to go around. The patrons allowed 60 minutes to be on the computer. Now and day the libraries offered a lot of activities for school age children. They also offered book club reading. Storytelling time is a good way to encourage kids to read. I like the libraries environment because it is very peaceful and you can get a lot of things done. By taking this class, I hope to gain more knowledge about using the library references.

  1. I also agree with you Kim, there is a lot to learn and understand in the library. You are also right about there not being enough computers to go around, and the time limits are usually not enough for people to get what they need to get done. I hope the city will be able to attain more funds so more computers can be put into libraries. I am not sure how long it will take for this to happen though since our economy is not doing too good with money as it is. I agree that the library is a good place to find activities for children and so forth, unfortunately most parents ( including myself) just do not have the time to take the kids to many places. I always have my hands full with work, school and family obligations, and to tell you the truth I can think of a million other places I would rather take my kids than a library. I am hoping I gain more knowledge about library references too. Good luck to you! and thanks for your response to my post:)
