It's an iPad world now
I just ran across this article in my search for information for our next assignment. Very interesting. The author makes the point that libraries need to get with the program regarding delivering information that is more accessible and readable by mobile devices. Trying to operate an online catalog with a mobile device is quite cumbersome apparently! Here is the link. Just imagine if patrons could access the online catalog from their cell phones! They could renew their books quickly and easily no matter where they are, download ebooks and place holds. If libraries offered this accessibility, you would see patrons using the library's services even more!

It is really annoying trying access that catalog i've been complaining about that for a while and my library said that there is no point.
