Competency H

H. demonstrate proficiency in the use of current information and communication technologies, and other related technologies, as they affect the resources and uses of libraries and other types of information providing entities:

Second Life is a virtual world in which librarians are beginning to practice. It allows people to access information from any location that they are at.  Like chat, email and other forms of online communication that information patrons use to ask librarians questions even if they are not in the same locale, Second Life is another environment in which people can access librarians and information. Learning to use my avatar and to chat and finally to use voice taught me another environment in which to communicate information.  I also built a Women Surrealist exhibition that presented images of their work,  gave out notecards to read with short biographies, and referred to a women surrealist bibliography on the web.
