Abstract
This paper reflects on Christchurch City Libraries’ history of the use of technology, including more recent use of Web 2.0 tools, and some of the learnings along the way. First there is a brief examination of Christchurch City Libraries’ digital progress from library automation to the World Wide Web. This is followed by considering some key examples of using Web 2.0, including a library blog, podcasting, a staff learning program, using Flickr and community archiving. Finally the paper reflects on our progress and raises some questions about what libraries and the library community need to do to move us further towards the participatory library world that the notion of Library 2.0 promises to deliver.

Abstract
This paper outlines the development and research methodology of the CAVAL 2009 Visiting Scholar Research Project, Measuring the Value and Effect of Learning 2.0 Programs in Libraries. Created to include all staff in a learning activity and offered to all via a Creative Commons license, some LIS practitioners have lauded Learning 2.0 programs as a successful way to engage staff. Replicated more than 500 times across the globe in various types of libraries and over 30 times in Australia alone, this project explores the true impact of the program on Australian libraries.

Abstract
How well do Web 2.0 tools work for libraries? There have been countless articles written about which Web 2.0 tools libraries should be using and for what purposes, but what about the success of those that are already being used? Casey-Cardinia Library Corporation (CCLC) conducted a survey of online and in-building users over a two-week period to discover their awareness of and use of CCLC’s five library blogs. This data, in conjunction with statistics from Google Analytics, provided an interesting insight into library users and their interaction with CCLC’s Web 2.0 endeavours.

Abstract
This paper, founded within Enterprise 2.0, knowledge management and informed learning theory, outlines the introduction of Yammer, an enterprise microblogging application at CPA Australia. The implementation and adoption process is discussed through usage analysis, and resulting outcomes through user success stories. Lessons learned provide a framework for organisations looking to adopt social networking tools within their own organisational environment.

Abstract
Wikis are still considered new technology in an emerging and evolving trend (Web 2.0). In recent years, wikis have been implemented in multi-branch services and standalone libraries. This paper reports on the support a wiki provides a virtual hub of health branches within a university library service. Six of the university’s fourteen branch libraries regularly populate a wiki space with health content, reinforcing synergistic relationships strengthened through a 2008 changed service model. One year later, targeted feedback and a Keepad (clicker) session indicate that health library staff find the space more integral to their daily work than usage statistics imply.
