"New fun with intellectual property," "moving beyond one-trick, single-search mode," "ushing information and working with widgets," and a whole lot more. This is a great (and greatly detailed) article on the intersection of the library and learning technology. I particularly like Reading 2.0: "I've worked with our classroom teachers to move our literature circles into blogs and wikis and Nings. Our students promote our reading-list books by creating book trailers. (You can find similar student-created trailers, reviews, and book talks inspired by librarians all over the world on YouTube, TeacherTube, TeacherLibrarianNing, VoiceThread, Animoto, and Glogster. We've had students blog as characters in plays and novels. Last year our students' experience (and enjoyment) of Shakespeare was enhanced by their presenting and sharing soliloquies using VoiceThread in our Hamlet Remixed research project."
