Synopsis

Patrons increasingly expect access to their libraries anywhere, anytime. This Special Report provides practical guidance in how librarians can put the library in the palms of their patrons hands. Using the HTML skills that many librarians already have along with flexible development tools, technology expert La Counte shows how creating a customised mobile app doesnt need to be expensive or require deep expertise.
