		<title>Post 11 &#8211; Course Reflection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past week or so, I have been working on my research paper, which is about how libraries are changing their physical space to accommodate Library 2.0.  As with all papers I write, this got me thinking about my library, and how I can incorporate what I&#8217;ve learned into real-life situations.
It is absolutely amazing, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Adding a search bar to your blog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here is the code to import a search bar for your blog.  You will need to use the &#8220;HTML/Java Script&#8221; gadget in Blogger&#8211; not sure what the widget is in WordPress, but I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s a way to do it.  Then, simply enter the following HTML code:
&#60;p align=&#8221;left&#8221;&#62;

		<title>Post 10 &#8211; Socializing on Group time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I would have to agree with my groupmate Sarah.  When group projects are announced, my first instinct is to run screaming in the opposite direction.  It isn&#8217;t because I hate working with others&#8211; quite the contrary.  My two main reasons for disliking group projects:  1)Due to Dominican&#8217;s diverse student population, my groupmates usually end up [...]]]></description>

		<title>Post 9 &#8211; Freeing Dewey per our users</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Library 2.0 is all about user-participation and services.  While we have been discussing that technology has a major role in this movement, I&#8217;d like to concentrate on things that are not all technology driven, but are changing our libraries, needless to say.
In 2007, there was a lot of press revolving around a library that stepped [...]]]></description>

		<title>Post 8 &#8211; Topic Exploration Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There has been such a boom in technology in recent years, many have been hard pressed to keep up.  However, libraries have met this challenge with open arms, offering wonderful services such as downloadable audio books, gaming, and online reference help.  However, technology has a repercussion that may become evident to the library&#8211; it is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Post 7 &#8211; Brand Monitoring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly &#8211; Monitoring Chicago Public Library comments on Twitter&#8230;.
I was surprised about how much CPL is mentioned on Twitter.  In the month that I monitored the library, they were mentioned at least once a day&#8211; most often several times a day, in fact.  Twitter is a major social tool [...]]]></description>

		<title>Post 6 &#8211; Literature Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My topic is how libraries are changing their physical space to accommodate their &#8220;tribes.&#8221;  I have several ideas of what I want to write about, including:
-Going Dewey-less
-The changing reference desk
-Installation of coffee shops and other food stuffs
-Becoming cell-phone friendly (via special rooms)
-Libraries offering book vending machines
-&#8221;Cool&#8221; names of public space
Sources I am consulting:

		<title>Post 5 &#8211; Social Networking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Social networking entered my life in December of 2004, about seven months after I graduated from college.  I still remember the day, because I was sitting in a restaurant eating breakfast with a long-lost friend (by long-lost, I mean I hadn&#8217;t seen her since college) when she asked if I was on Facebook.

		<title>Post 2 &#8211; Participatory Service (repost)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The theory of the Long Tail absolutely fascinates me. I have only worked in libraries for about six months, and I never truly looked closely at the statistics of what books are coming in and going out. From a shelf viewpoint, it is easily noticeable that it is the best sellers that are constantly checked [...]]]></description>
