Innovation
The Internet was first based on the “Web 1.0” paradigm of Web sites, email, search engines and surfing. Web 2.0 is about conversations, interpersonal networking, personalization and individualism, a much higher level of interactivity and deeper user experiences. It is vital that libraries be at the center of these new community conversations. Libraries are traditionally a trusted resource, a community institution that offers universal access and that can now be a point of practical information technology innovation — the third place in the physical and online community (beyond the workplace and home). Created by TechSoup for Libraries.


Basic Computer Skills Survey
The Basic Computer Skills Survey is a simple questionnaire to assess the incoming skill level and help to pace the class. The same test is given on the last day of class to provide feedback for class improvements. Created by the Tenderloin Technology Lab.
