The Handheld Librarian 2009 - An online conference about Mobile Library
Services

 

More people than ever are using mobile devices for a wide variety of
purposes including communication, internet access, text messaging, and
entertainment. It is important that libraries provide services on these
devices as use increases.

 

The first ever Handheld Librarian Online on July 30, 2009 is the place
to learn about these and other topics related to using wireless and hand
held devices in your library.  The program, sponsored by Alliance
Library System, LearningTimes and InfoQuest, will include a variety of
ways to collaborate, network and learn from a great group of experts in
the field.    Speakers include Gerry McKiernan from Iowa State
University, Tom Peters of TAP Information Services, Joe Murphy from Yale
University, Peg Burnette from the University of Illinois at Chicago
Library of the Health Sciences-Peoria, and many others!
