Hello, as an introduction to my newly established blog, I would like to state this is my first blog. Ever. With my interests in new technologies being at the forefront of the dynamically changing world of Libraries, my hope is to research and comment on the major changes that are at the horizon. The current “avenue” that Libraries seem to taking is the one towards e-books. My local Library has 100 Kobo readers and many titles that are available for download. Now I was one to quickly jump onto this bandwagon due to my increasing number of bookcases and the disapproving sigh from my spouse whenever I have been to a bookstore. E-books are cheaper, easier to store, easier to transport and quite frankly I enjoy any trendy/useful technology that hits the marketplace. Therefore, I have looked into 3 different articles featuring what new technologies are making appearances in Libraries today.
I love my Kobo and had no idea that the public libraries were actually loaning out readers.
