Local Community in the Era of Social Media Technologies introduces the experience of bringing a local community to the world. This book, with the model of Santa Cruz County, California, develops a truly global approach to the subject. The first section of the book covers the early efforts of recording the local Santa Cruz area, before moving on to deal with Library 1.0. The next section looks at the present situation with Library 2.0 and its benefits. The book ends with a discussion of future directions and the implications of Library 3.0 and beyond.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of figures and tables\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eList of abbreviations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart 1: History: Never A Dull Moment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Local community: a long view\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA long process\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the era of social media technologies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Santa Cruz Public Library, California: a brief review\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMonterey Library Association: the first public library in California\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSanta Cruz Library Association: the predecessor of SCPL\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst head librarian: Minerva Waterman\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreserving Pacific West heritage: Hubert Howe Bancroft\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreserving Pacific West natural resources: John Muir\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: The rise of local authors and content\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSanta Cruz County history and Margaret Koch\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChinese Gold and Sandy Lydon\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHihn-Younger Archive and Stanley D.
