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!

"I really didn't realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous
group. 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."    Michael Moore
