The Trouble With Trends | Peer to Peer ReviewLibrary JournalMost of the ten trends are about collections, preservation, and digital access. Those are important to those of us in smaller libraries, but student learning is much more front and center.
‘Curación’ es un término que aunque pudiera resultar extraño para hablar en castellano, ya que se recoge de la expresión inglesa ‘content curation’ o ‘ content curator’, es una palabra que la hemos heredado del latín ‘curare’ que significa curar, cuidar o preocuparse. Por tanto, se trata de un concepto que emana justamente los valores que se le quiere dar a esta nueva fórmula de entender la comunicación.

Presentation given at SXSWedu on March 6, 2012.

In this video, we wanted to try to get into the heads of some of our favorite curators to understand what makes them tick. Featured curators include: Maria Popova (twitter.com/brainpicker) Joanne McNeil (twitter.com/rhizomedotorg) Peter Hopkins (twitter.com/bigthink) Edith Zimmerman (thehairpin.com/) Anthony De Rosa (soupsoup.tumblr.com) Rex Sorgatz (twitter.com/fimoculous) Piers Fawkes (psfk.com) Tina Roth Eisenberg (swiss-miss.com) watch video in fullscreen HD here: http://vimeo.com/38524181

In another talk he gave in October, he declared, “What will kill our profession is not ebooks, Amazon, or Google, but a lack of imagination.” What’s a Makerspace? So what’s a makerspace? Also called a hackerspace, a backspace, or a hacklab, it’s any sort of creative space where people gather to make stuff and share ideas about making stuff.

Hackerspaces.org, a wiki connecting makerspaces around the world, defines them as “community-operated physical places, where people can meet and work on their projects.” The ideas behind makerspaces—community-driven, open-access, shared resources and tools, knowledge sharing—make them a natural fit for a library community..."
