Monthly Archives: December 2009

The vendor that the college will be using to incorporate 2D barcodes and SMS tags in its ads/announcements, instruction, and student social networking will be on campus next week. I can schedule a joint session with BCTC and library staff for the morning of Friday, December 11. Librarians who are interested should let me know. I will post more information as soon as procurement process is completed.

Two sets of articles of interest to the teaching librarian appear in the Chronicle of Higher Education, November 27, 2009:

“Traveling with Twitter: Not for the Faint of Heart,”  p. A1 and A10, 11 and a companion article on A10, Marc Perry, “Conference Humiliation: They’re Tweeting Mean Things behind Your Back.”

The second set is Jennifer Howard, “Libraries Innovate to Counter Cuts,” pp. A1 and A8.
