I think for us at Cascades the biggest obstacle is the physical layout and equipment. Most of us at the reference desk use and have been using many of the components of Web 2.0 either at the library or in our private life. Some of us try to help the users take advantage of the Web offerings the library has whether it is in the form for example, of databases, online catalog, or the downloadable products. I am a user of the Overdrive audiobooks and recently upgraded to a 2 gig MP3 player just for the audiobooks. But I have found that some users aren't patient enough to wait through the clicks to get to the material we offer or find that having to use the PCs which ar in the middle of the traffic flow just too frustrating. So they don't.
