Topeka and the Pew Internet & American Life Project

Mary Madden recently spoke at my library for the recent NEKLS Tech Day event. And she blogged about us on the Pew blog! Check out the article “This is Library 2.0.”

I thought it was cool, and thought I’d share! Check out the article, and see how one library is working to change and evolve.

    Her comment, “It’s a holistic process, and one that may ultimately involve increased efforts to make the library a more central feature in the community where people come to gather — in person, and online.” To me this is revolutionary thought, in a very good way.
