CJRLC Technology Group - Gadget Petting Zoo - Thursday, May 7th

The CJRLC Technology Group will be wrapping up another spectacular year of meetings with our final get together for the 2008-2009 season on Thursday, May 7th from 3:00 to 4:30 pm at Princeton Public Library. This meeting will feature a Gadget Petting Zoo!

As many of you know, bringing your tech toys and gadgets is always encouraged at our meetings, but we really want you pull out all the stops and bring your latest, cutting-edge stuff to the May 7th meeting. If you discovered anything new lately at regional meetings or national conferences like Computers in Libraries, please feel free to bring those ideas also.

If you have not yet seen Aaron Schmidt's revolutionary DCPL app for the iPhone, I plan on demonstrating it at the session. This app is already helping to transform mobile access to libraries. In order to encourage other libraries to grow their own iPhone apps, Aaron has graciously made the code available under a Creative Commons Attribution – Noncommercial - Share Alike license and it can be downloaded from the DCPL Labs website.

Please register for the May 7th meeting here. Directions to the Princeton Public Library and parking information can be found here.

After the May 7th meeting, the CJRLC Technology Group will return in the fall with all-new 2009-2010 programming!

So mark your calendars for May 7th, power up your best gadgets and we'll see you then!
