Views from the Observation Deck (Under the Dome)

• iPod Nanos, not video, are the norm.• Help, Scotty! Laptop use has

overloaded our wireless circuits.• Computer labs are packed and have

long lines.• “Express email terminals" are a

MySpace mecca.• Outreach info should be placed at

• Redesign of computing spaces to facilitate collaboration is needed.

Why Use Multimedia in the Library?

• Increase in portable technologies continues to enhance how students learn.

• Increase in large class sizes creates the need to reach our students in innovative ways.

• Makes libraries more relevant, innovative, and contemporary for 21st century learners.
