More networking and learning opportunities, attended the ALIA schools' iPad session in Cooburg. Great to see a full house and some younger librarians. Different schools shared what their schools are doing with iPads, one school every student had an iPad (own purchase or a loan from the school), the other had class sets of iPads.
Lots of apps mentioned, just need to time to have a play and assess the need for my school. Some apps I already use like Flipboard, Pinterest and others I need to look at.
Have been wondering how to list apps so that Library staff can share great apps with other staff, do we catalogue them, create lists? Through practical discussion in final session I am thinking that we might create a Library Pinterest page with boards for each of the different genres of apps. Will talk at school to see what the other library staff think.
