Blog about how you could use mashups at your library.
This mashup really got me excited as I waited for it to upload.I created a Jigsaw of "Sawn Rocks" a local tourist site.Very pleased with the result.Cant wait to do more mash ups.
These mash ups would be a great asset to our library.We will be able to make calendars,jigsaws and maps to name a few.The great thing about this is that you can make any of these mashups using family photos.

Answer Boards And Social Searching
Consider is there a role for your library in “slamming the boards”? In what ways might your customers like to rate or review items in the collection or services you offer? Share your thoughts in your blog.
Our library is a small town community library.Most of our borrowers prefer the face to face contact with librarians.I have seen answer boards on the internet before and think this is an ideal way for people to ask questions and get great results.But in same circumstances I think that visiting a library and asking librarians questions is also very worthwhile.
