Number fifteen was on Web 2.0 and the future of libraries. I read the article "Away from the icebergs" which dealt with actipating patron needs and spending more time going and finding out patron needs. I think the last decade has seen so many technological and information changes and many of those sources have changed or are changing quickly. With these changes come changes in patron needs. I think as librarians we have to read and study trends in what patrons use, but also anticipate needs. However I think many of us have already become at least somewhat aware of trends and changes because we see what gets used and what doesn't. However we do need to search and learn more to keep up with trends and changes.
