| Summary | Annotation User-Generated Content and its Impact on Web-Based Library Services examines the impact of user-generated content on web-based library services. The book begins with an overview of Web 2.0 tools and technologies and a brief look at the emerging semantic tools of Web 3.0 and their implications for libraries, then investigates the changing role of the end user as both a creator and consumer of web content and what this means for societys perception and understanding of information. Chapters address the advantages and challenges of using these tools to bring community expertise and opinion into the library and how to reinvent the library website as a community, rather than a collection to the issues of moderating user-generated content. Throughout the book, conceptual discussion is illustrated with real-world examples and practical suggestions for library practitioners. |
