Intro to Blogging
Today we are starting workbook section #3 - Blogs & Blogging in the hcplc=Lib 2.0 training.
During this two week period, you will be:
- exploring library & non-library blogs,
- learning how blogs are being used in libraries (and maybe adding to the list of possibilities yourself),
- posting on a few comments on a few blogs,
- creating a blog of your own that will be your 2.0 workbooks through the rest of the training.
Don't worry if you haven't created your blog yet, you have another two weeks. Take a look at the "hcplc=Lib 2.0 Participants" area on the training blog - 48 of your eager colleagues have already created a blog and are posting.
Here's some links to get you started exploring blogs:
