Promoting the Library's
CD Collection via iTunes File Sharing
One of the hippest things you
can do with technology is to use it to meet students on their own turf.
As part of an outreach effort, one group of librarians started sharing
its vast CD collection via iTunes. They were trying to show college
students that there was a lot to discover at the library. And the
students have started tuning in.

Hip High-Tech Purchases
Don't Always Work Out as Planned
Since technology is so
expensive, making the wrong purchasing decisions can have severe
financial consequences. These authors tell about high-tech
purchases they made that didn't work out, what they could have done
differently, and how the equipment is being used today.
