ReviewsIf you're searching for a book on how libraries can capitalize on the mobile revolution, this book is for you. It's a readable guide summarizing every aspect of the library's role in mobile technologies. The book is well-organized by topics and subtopics with specific examples, hot issues, tips and references from real library programs. This book is a call to make mobile devices a visible part of everyday library service., Ann Gleason has written a useful, compact, and readable book on mobile technology. As someone who is not a 'techie,' I especially appreciate her clear writing, basic approach and the wealth of best practices and resources presented., I would recommend this book to anyone interested in improving or expanding the use of mobile technologies in their library.
