Survey of MN Academic College Libraries and their use of Web 2.0 Applications
I took some time to investigate many academic library websites to determine to what extent they are or are not incorporating Web 2.0 into their daily activities. I looked for links to blogs, podcasts, YouTube videos, online tutorials, or other obvious uses of Web 2.0.
Listed below are the links to library websites I looked at:
University of St. Thomas
Macalester College
College of St. Catherine
Hamline University
College of St. Benedict/Saint John's University
Gustavus Adolphus College
Bethel University
Augsburg College
In class, I will show everyone the types of tools these institutions have added to their existing library webpage to promote a better web presence, reaching out to where their patrons are online.
This exercise was also interesting for the purposes of website design evaluation. I definetely developed favorites among these websites!
