Library 2.0 the future of libraries in the digital age A message to all members of Library 2.0 Join me today, Tuesday, January 10th, for a special live and interactive FutureofEducation.com webinar with the incredibly prolific and dynamic Ian Jukes--who describes himself as a "registered educational evangelist," and says that his mission in life is "to ensure that children are properly prepared for the future rather than society's past."  Ian's focus has consistently been on the compelling need to restructure our educational institutions so that they become relevant to the current and future needs of children. We'll talk about the practical issues related to ensuring that change is meaningful, and about the pragmatic issues that provide the essential context for educational restructuring. See you online!
