[Publib] re: Library 2.0

[Sara Weissman]

>>I'd like to play devil's advocate for a moment.  What if what the patron
was asking was "What is this that you are spending my taxes on?  What
does it do for me?"

"Ah, but we're not spending your tax dollars. The service is free and
loading the titles in is so much faster than earlier formats that we are
actually saving a fair bit of money doing this."
    That is the great thing about most 2.0 innovation ..unlike other
initiatives I've seen in my 30+ years in this game. Most of them are
free, until/unless you want enlarge/expand your account (and we have,
with both Flickr and LibraryThing).
