چکیده
At the University of Technology, Sydney Library, web 2.0 technologies are being implemented across a range of areas to enhance the information literacy program with the type of dynamic content that clients now expect. This paper will discuss how UTS Library is implementing web 2.0 to transform the traditional program into an entertaining and dynamic set of learning tasks that support teaching, learning and research. The use of social networking, QR codes, YouTube and advanced Google training will be considered in the context of our new approach to making information literacy increasingly engaging and client-centric.
