Libraries offer advice on purchasing eReaders
“If you are going to circulate eReaders to middle schoolers, consider buying “bomb proof” covers for each eReader device.” This is the advice that a school librarian tendered after participating in the eBook Pilot project which concluded in May, 2012. The objective of this pilot project was to distill the experiences of academic, public, and school librarians as they experimented with circulating eReader devices and training staff and the public on how to use these devices.
Their collective wisdom includes information on the following:
- Circulation of eBooks
- Developing eReader Collections
- Policies, Procedures, & Resources
- Promotion & Marketing
- Purchasing eReaders
- Technical Aspects
- Training
