Pam gave you some good advice. Some more specific Web 2.0 tools to discuss would be online apps like VoiceThread (www.voicethread.com), and Toondoo (www.toondoo.com) , which are sweeping the education world, and using tools like Zotero (a Foxfire add-on) to aid student research/information literacy. You might discuss making the library website interactive through use of blogs where students can post book reviews, podcast tutorials, wiki-based pathfinders, etc. grin--if you don't mind some blatant self-promotion, my blog URL is below; it focuses on the intersection between library, classroom and technology. It might give you some good ideas. When I graduated from library school last year and started interviewing, I hardly had any questions on running a library; almost all were about technology. Most of my friends who interviewed had a similar experience. Good luck!

They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at the desk, all quiet and everything. They're like plotting the revolution, man. I wouldn't mess with them."
