"Whether you are looking to decide if open source software is right for your library or need help finding what open source software package meets your needs, this site has the content and the community to help you with those decisions."

Why do "lists of considerations" never include "Make sure the publishers have actually created the e-textbooks that are needed for your institution's courses"? Never mind student and faculty buy-in when even publishers are lagging behind.

Back at work, picking books off the floor again. Happy new year, same as the old year. :-)
I have four hours to go to the end of the uni year. Shall I spend it finding webpages to delete or edit down; verifying papers for the repository; copy/pasting virtual reference transcripts for some research; tidying my desk/inbox/hard drive space; or reading lolcats?
Have been virtuously copy/pasting 46 transcripts on the grounds that I need to spread that workload out or my wrists will make me pay. May now be ready for that nap. Possibly in the fetal position.

September's transcripts completed; now time to shutdown and switch off at wall. Happy holidays/unholidays/winter/summer, all!

Librarians typically take the cart to a given campus for a shift of 1-2 hours during peak student foot traffic times, e.g., lunch or between classes. On a typical outing, the Mobile Library is loaded with everything from a laptop to water to flyers to buttons to other branding/marketing materials to craft supplies to free gift books, plus extra swag and edibles at special events.
