appraise, process, describe and service archival collections. This
one-day workshop is great for new archivists or people responsible for
caring for archival collections. Participants will receive a CD

Wikis, Blogs, Flickr, Zoho, and More: Demystifying Web 2.0 in Your
Archives/Library
9:00-4:30 (Registration begins at 8:30); $35 SOA Members/ $45
Non-members
We may have heard about blogs, wikis, social networking, photo sharing,
and folksonomies, but what is Web 2.0 and why do archivists and
librarians need to know about it? This workshop will explore the
opportunities and challenges that Web 2.0 offers to archivists and
librarians and offer simple tips on how you can implement Web 2.0 tools
in your institution. Familiarity with the Web is a plus, but technical
expertise is not required for this workshop. Sessions include: 

*	Exploring Libraries (...And Our Users) In The Web 2.0 Realm 
*	Second Life 101 
*	Archives 2.0: A Survey Of Library, Archives And Museum Projects
Using Web 2.0 
*	Web 2.0: Getting Your Archives/Library On Board
