Recommendations



Local studies, Children, Teenage/youth, Adult Fiction and Information/ Reference all these five services are using 2.0 technologies in Parramatta libraries.  All these service are provided their official web and blog.

Library 2.0 is a way of providing library service through new internet technologies as a platform of service on net.

Local Studies - Parramatta City Library educating its staff members about Local Studies/history by using 2.0 technology. The staff members are making a blog about the history of entire community, area, people and library. It has plenty of interesting stories and pictures, also variety of books provided on online catalogue which is highly recommended.

Children’s – Parramatta City Library have very good collection of eresources for kids such as story book, detective book, video, games and magazine for kids enjoyment. The library have plenty of activities for kids. But my recommendation is to provide more children activities like musical or physical.     

Teenage/Youth – Parramatta City Library also have various collection for Teenage/youth for their enjoyment. My recommendation is to add more educational programme for youth which will be help to build their future.      
Adult Fiction- Parramatta City Library has large collection of adult fiction. Which is serve the community sufficiently.

Information/Reference - Parramatta City Library have well covered information/references belongs to this service area. These library is serving for large community of l where people can find about their items are looking for. Online services of the library include a Facebook, twitter and RSS Feed, youTube, wikies and fliker where people can interchange massage and opinion and get more information about present library activities. Parramatta City library is generating more innovative plan to improve the library facility for the community.  
 
The example of libraries in the world who is using library 2.0 technology to its fullest are – The National Library of Australia (http://www.nla.gov.au/), The German National library (http://www.dnb.de/EN/wir), The New york Public (www.nypl.org).
