Thing 15 - Library 2.0

I believe that Library 2.0 is when libraries keep up with the current technology by meeting the whims of a technological society.
Rick Anderson, who writes, "Away From the Icebergs" gives off panicked vibes concerning libraries possibly not being able to keep up in the future because of their difficulty "letting go". These futuristic thoughts that are valid and forthcoming will also contribute to our society becoming lazier physically as well as mentally. The enjoyment of reading a tangible book for fun, walking to the library for the book, and knowing where to find it, helps to keep us more active, as opposed to pressing a few buttons to achieve results without working for them.
