I am going to the conference Intenet Librarian International 15-16th october in London, but the days up to I would like to visit some libraries to see how they work and what they offer their users.
Any ideas as to who would be good to contact?
I would prefer academic libraries who use web 2.0 and/ or teach information Litteracy between 12-14th.
One source might be imperial (www.imperial.ac.uk), who has a person called Owen Stephen's who set up the 1st library mash up in london (blog attached). I would suggest ours but its not that web 2.0 savvy.
I never got around to thanking you Leslie.
I'm still working on my report for that week, and it was very valuable input I got.
I got to see Imperial and lse.
Some of the things I can use for our own library, but also some don'ts.
It didn't seem like Owen Stephens was still there, and they did seem to be under staffed - some of the work they have done have come to a stand still due to lack of time.
If you get the chance I would recommend going to LSE. I especially loved the way they made their own user interface on top of the voyager inteface.
