Library tools

image of two men sitting with laptop Web2.0 is used to describe web-based services that promote social networking and sharing.

Library Services are developing a range of Web 2.0 tools for your use. New tools will appear in this section as they become available. You can contribute to their development by giving feedback on how they could be made more useful.

As with any website we recommend that you evaluate for yourself how relevant a tool is to you and whether it is useful to you and your needs. If you would like some advice on how to evaluate websites please visit the Information Literacy Tutorial, Safari: Section 5.
