To Libraries 2.0 or not to 2.0

Having read the 5 different perspectives on Web 2.0 suggested in the discovery resources, it was "To a temporary place in time..." which resonated with me most. There is a lot of information out there and more than ever, librarians and other information staff are vital to help the general public make sense of it. Sure, anyone can find their answer on Google but it can be quite overwhelming dealing with the information overload that can throw up. Also, having an expert of sorts to help you distinguish the golden nuggets of information from the "fool's gold" which can be thrown up. The ways of manipulating how your search results are presented means it can be increasing difficult to ensure the veracity of the results that are being thrown up.
