Learning 2.0 Message

Welcome to Learning 2.0, an online self-discovery program that encourages the exploration of web 2.0 tools and new technologies, specifically 23 Things.

This program was originally developed and launched for the staff at the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County in August 2006 with a total of 352 PLCMC participants creating blogs and many additional guests joining in. Since the program's launch, the exercises here have helped other library systems develop programs of their own, the first being the Yarra Plenty Regional Library system in Melbourne, Australia.

If you're interested in duplicating this program for your own staff, please feel free to do so under Creative Commons. And although PLCMC staff have already completed this program, this site will remain up for your use.

Additionally, you might find some of my program notes on the About page helpful. To date, over 750 libraries and organizations have duplicated the program worldwide in at least 15 documented languages. Listing of Learning 2.0 Libraries.

If you have questions about duplicating this program, please feel free to contact me. This is a learning program that is freely available to anyone & I'd be happy to help anyway I can.
