16. School Librarians
and Libraries
• "Love Love the digital world! I
think ease, convenient,
lightweight and never ending."
Mary Grant, Media Manager
• "Access seems to be one of
the biggest roadblocks to
libraries fully embracing digital
content." Travis Jonker

• Technology on the Loose http://ohekidstech.blogspot.com

19. Creation
• "Digital books and educational
apps will become more device
neutral. (More web based and less
app based as schools need to
move to BYOD (Bring Your Own
Device) models for budgetary
reasons."
• "I think publishers will continue to
make more and more mainstream
books available in eBook format
with pricing/availability moderating
for multiple users.
• "As librarians become more savvy
users of social media, their ability
to promote library services will
increase visibility! YIPPEEE!!!"
