This was a great presentation that started out with a look at Hennepin’s wonderful Bookspace, hop over and take a look at it, it’s impressive. Just some of the things that really stand out pictures of patrons reading blog enews sign ups main page index Featured lists – created by librarians What We’re Reading – created by staff Reader’s Lists – patrons are creating these! Genre pages New titles list Librarian tips and news Who is doing all this work? There is a Bookspace Coordinator, a senior Libririan in Web Services, a bookspace worskshop and bookspace coordinators. The interface for contribution is easy! Staff are required to contribute content, it is part of their job, not volunteer.
