Why is this masterclass so relevant to you?
Libraries and corporate information centres are experiencing a revolution in the way information is delivered, accessed, obtained and stored due to the emergence of Web 2.0 technologies and the rising trend to digitise records and information.
Web 2.0 technologies are providing organisations with new and innovative ways to generate information sharing through user-centred multimedia experiences that are socially rich and innovative, whilst digital technologies are enabling the employment of modern methods to access records, documents and information.
However, many organisations are seeking practical methods to implement these processes within their organisations. The Web 2.0 and digital hype is often defined and analysed, but its use and functions are rarely demonstrated nor explained in a practical sense.
This two-day masterclass will provide an interactive environment in which to explore some of the most popular and innovative tools and techniques associated with libraries, Web 2.0 and the digitisation of records and information. Through a unique combination of discussion, interactive elements and group exercises, delegates will discover how these technologies can be successfully implemented and utilised within their organisation.
You will explore the following critical issues:
- Beyond definition: practically implementing tools and applications
- Applying collaborative technologies: blogs, wikis, RSS feeds and social bookmaking
- Exposing records and improving information delivery and access
- Using digitisation to facilitate content interactivity and collect and deliver information
- Building critical masses of digital content for online access
