History of Learning 2.0

Learning 2.0 is an initiative created by Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County librarian, Helene Blowers, who blogs at Library Bytes "to encourage staff to experiment and learn about the new and emerging technologies that are reshaping the context of information on the Internet today."

Since then, libraries all over the world have come up with their own version of the Learning 2.0 project and Helene herself has been featured on the cover of Wired magazine.
Helene herself has encouraged libraries everywhere to "steal" her idea to help libraries serve their patrons better.
