eBook workshops

I spent the better part of my day yesterday in Derby Kansas at the lovely new Derby Public Library.  The reason for this was the semi-annual meeting of our regional library system, SCKLS.  Also, because SCKLS provided two great programs following the business meeting.

The first was a presentation by Kevin Honeycutt, a guy as passionate about education as you would want every one of your child's teachers to be.  Really great stuff, and I highly recommend his free tools page - there is enough there to run your entire organization on free/shareware!

The afternoon was taken up by demos of ereaders of all sorts presented by SCKLS staff.  I think we learned a couple of tricks and answers to at least one key question that had been preventing us from circulating eReaders.

So, COMING SOON - an experiment with ebooks and filling holds for high-demand items!
