2. A definition by acclaimed swiss art historian and curator Hans-Ulrich Obrist Lately, the word “curate” seems to be used in an greater variety of contexts than ever before, in reference to everything from a exhibitions of prints by Old Masters to the contents of a concept store. The risk, of course, is that the definition may expand beyond functional usability. But I believe ‘curate’ finds ever-wider application because of a feature of modern life that is impossible to ignore: the incredible proliferation of ideas, information, images, disciplinary knowledge, and material products that we all witnessing today. Such proliferation makes the activities of filtering, enabling, synthesizing, framing, and remembering more and more important as basic navigational tools for 21st century life. These are the tasks of the curator, who is no longer understood as simply the person who fills a space with objects but as the person who brings different cultural spheres into contact, invents new display features, and makes junctions that allow unexpected encounters and results. […] To curate, in this sense, is to refuse static arrangements and permanent alignments and instead to enable conversations and relations. Generating these kinds of links is an essential part of what it means to curate, as is disseminating new knowledge, new thinking, and new artworks in a way that can seed future cross-disciplinary inspirations. But there is another case for curating as a vanguard activity for the 21st century.”
3. Curating has always been a tool for librarians. Shelfing – making books and other library media so attractive as possible for the users. Taxonomy i it self is about curating the collections. To curate is fascilitate for the users to get the right information, at the right time and quantity.
4. What is digital curation?“…discovering, organizing, and sharing relevant and interesting content from around the Web through their social streams of choice.” Brian Solis
5. “Curation is all about building knowledge-based collections of relevant and related content. This activity can extend well beyond ebooks, as curations can incorporate other electronic media such as images, articles, video, and audio”Andrew Roskill, Library Journal More or less what the ordinary librarian does every day.

7. What happened at the library when people started streaming music instead of lending it? How and why can libraries and librarians use Spotify as a tool for building relations with their users? Spotify is a commercial music streaming service with over 40 million users worldwide. If you can’t beat them – join them! After all it’s all about collecting, sharing and providing digital content to the public. Language courses– Language Superstar Bird songs and other sounds from the nature Sounds for relaxation Sound effects Famous speeches from important historical events Audiobooks
8. Spotify as a music library – bad, good or great? 20 millions of sounds, music etc. but its not great until someone curates it. I’ve been exploring Spotify and tried to find out how libraries could use it, if they want. Promotig audio books Making playlists of of local music and artists Making soundtracks to the reading of books with musical references In what way would this extra information provide a greater reading experience?
9. If Spotify an libraries are about providing, Pinterest is more about collcting an sharing. Pinterest is a web and mobile application company that offers a visual discovery, collection, sharing, and storage tool. Users create and share the collections of visual bookmarks (boards). Boards are created through a user selecting an item, page, website, etc. and pinning it to an existing or newly created board. Users save and share pins from multiple resources onto boards based on a plethora of criteria, e.g., similar characteristics, a theme, birthday parties, planning a vacation, writing a book, interior decorating, holidays. Boards can develop projects, organize events, or save pictures and data together.  70 million users online 2013. 80 % are women, sounds like a library to me. IKEA, Volvo etc has their own pin boards
