Libraries of the Future

What does the academic library of the future look like?

Jo Greenland

How do students know how to evaluate Web 2.0 material?

- Information overload
With the vast amount of information available on the Web, how can students locate quality resources without becoming overwhelmed by the sheer quantity out there?


- Evaluating quality of resources
Students need to develop critical and conceptual thinking skills to complement their technical abilities.

How can librarians help users to develop these skills? How can we encourage critical thinking and evaluation skills without sounding patronising - especially if they know more about the technology side than we do?
Can we develop more of a role curating quality web resources?
