Enhancing Library Services with Web 2.0 Functionalities

This article gives a breakdown on the different Library 2.0 systems and how they are designed. It gives a example of how an open-sourced OPACIAL would be developed and the features that would be included. Also, the article goes in depth on how Web 2.0 technologies are already being incorporated.

It looks like as if many of these systems are becoming popular. But as I stated in my last post, I think that there are some privacy concerns that need to be addressed. Even in the system architecture diagram, there seems to be storage of information of outside users.

Given this, should libraries consider adopting a code a privacy?
