Mighty Little Librarian | Librarian Tiff's Blog 1-2/2009 - Massimina Cattari L’idea del progetto “CIBER 23 Library Things” nasce durante il seminario primaverile del 2008, quando Mary Joan Crowley ed Ezio Tarantino (La Sapienza Università di Roma), proposero alla comunità CIBER l’utilizzo del “ 23 Learning 2.0 Things ” per l’iniziazione dei bibliotecari CIBER agli strumenti del Web 2.0 applicabili alla Library 2.0. “ 23 Learning 2.0 Things ” è un programma di auto-apprendimento sviluppato da Helene Blowers presso la Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenberg County e adottato e adattato da più di 250 biblioteche e organizzazioni. Un corso diviso in nove moduli per imparare a “maneggiare” una Library 2.0. Quella effettuata tra i bibliotecari volontari di CIBER è stata la prima sperimentazione del programma di auto apprendimento in Italia. Mary Joan Crowley ha presentato per la prima volta agli esterni a CIBER il progetto formativo durante il workshop Web 2.0 and libraries, tenutosi a Roma il 6 marzo 2009 .
