School libraries and the future Web 2.0, Library 2.0 and School Library 2.0 A listing of just some of the useful web 2.0 sites that I think are valuable. These are in the context of the wider library and educational world as well as school libraries. I used all of these to create a presentation for the RTA Conferences in November 2007. All of the Web 2.0 sites mentioned in the presentation are listed here. For a more comprehensive list, look at Marianne Bradnock’s publication for the SLA, Bradnock, Marianne (2007). Blogs and bytes: ICT and the secondary school library. SLA Guidelines. Swindon: School Library Association. Essential reading – far more links than I can put here.
