Alex, you must be psychic. I was just reading an article in today's NY Times about how libraries are using technology, including eBook offerings and wifi, to extend their range of customer services. Unfortunately most of the free wifi offerings in the DC Metro libraries are academic-only, but as the article points out, many libs are beginning to offer such services and don't need to advertise it.

Lynn, I can reassure you I was reading the same article, which then inspired me for this post. They said it would cost a library not more than $1000 to install Wifi? If that is true, I wouldn't be surprised to see Wifi offerings in libraries spread very fast.

I hope you're right. But many libraries in the US are extremely underfunded, with the noted exception of the ones they discussed in the article (Cleveland and Seattle, which are two great examples).
And here I was thinking you were psychic. ![]() ![]() |
