Exercise 3 Photo sharing & Flickr

When you are put on the spot to think of a library anywhere in the world, it is difficult to suddenly think of just one.  After Goggling a few, I ended up picking the Geelong Library in Victoria.  Point Lonsdale south of Geelong is a beautiful rural beach suburb where I have spent lots of time over the past 21 years (prior to moving to Sydney last October) and I always thought it would be ideal to work in the Geelong Library or one of it's branches.  

I chose two photos from the library's home page.

The first  "book a librarian" photo I thought is a great idea.  So many people would benefit if they took part in this (free) service.  The one on one session is customised so the library user can ask for help and direction on any topic E.G. searching the catalogue, reserving items, using the internet anything they need assistance with.  User friendly!!
