Abstract:
This article introduces Web 1.0 and its transformation into Web 2.0. It describes impact of Web 2.0 on Library 2.0. It compares Library 1.0 with Library 2.0. It suggests that recent thinking
describing the changing Web as “Web 2.0” will have substantial implications for libraries, and
recognizes that while these implications are kept very close to the history and mission of libraries,
they still necessitate a new paradigm for librarianship. The paper points out different characteristics
of Library 2.0. It states related technologies towards implementation of Library 2.0 services.
It indicates principles Web 2.0 to the practice of librarianship, especially addressing how Web 2.0 technologies such as synchronous messaging and streaming media, blogs, wikis, social networks,
tagging, RSS feeds, and mashups might intimate changes in library service
