In the spirit of openness and novelty this blog simply records a multi-modal, holonic perspective on library work and information science from the point of view of someone new to the profession. Since one of the current trajectories of Library 2.0 (apologies for the over-used term) has much to do with the sharing of information (Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, etc.), I thought I would simply offer one noob's perspective on the joys of . . . . . share-enity. Yes, I made it up, but semantic magic works wonders every now and then. It opens up the world a bit and lets a little more light shine through.
And what is share-enity anyway? It's the state of satisfaction that one arrives at when either sending or receiving information "that works", for reasons of content, format, convenience, style, design, or utility. It's pure share-enity when peer-to-peer, librarian-to-patron, or friend-to-friend both benefit. Over the next few posts I'll explore share-enity as it relates to library and information science and regular people like you and me. After all, why shouldn't everyone experience a little share-enity now and again?
