After years of creating my own homepage with pure HTML coding and FTP software, blogging and other social software does change the way in which information is being transmitted and shared. As a MIS student, a casual librarian and a casual library clerk in the public library sector, my research studies how blogs can enhance and promote library services in the public libraries in Perth. Currently, there are none of the Perth public library has a library blog, why is that so? Does that reflect the attitude of the librarian? The technology barrier? Constraint and funding? Or simply, the patrons do not need a library blog actually?

I definitely hope to see more library students to share and contribute to this blog.
