2009 MLA Petting Zoo Info & Schedule
Description: Our MEEK gadgets may have MIGHTY impact for your library! Back for a third year, the Technology Petting Zoo is a comfortable place to put your timid hands on docile devices. Nothing bites or induces allergies - we promise!
Whether you're curious about the gadgets your patrons may bring intoyour library to plug into your library computers, want to "try before you buy" or are thinking about podcasting, book trailers, or circulating electronic devices to reinvent or re-energize your library's traditional services, the Petting Zoo is the place for you.
In addition to hands-on technology show & tell, our gadget gurus will answer tech questions, provide a space to charge your laptops, cellphones and handheld devices IF you bring the cordage, and provide demos of Web 2.0 applications like FourSquare, Face your Manga, Skype, Wordle, and more. Plan to visit several times to take it all in, and
remember, don't feed the gadgets! The Technology Petting Zoo will be open during Exhibit Hall Hours.
Volunteers are needed to staff the Technology Petting Zoo. Contact Beth Gallaway to volunteer for a shift!
