Abstract

This session compared the experiences gained from introducing iPads into MacEwan University library, and eBook readers to the Ferriss Hodgett Library,Grenfell Campus. Topics covered included: what to consider when selecting ereader devices; what content can be delivered on those devices; how to put ereaders into the hands of users; whether the devices improve user access to and satisfaction with online resources; and how libraries can best capitalize on this emerging technology.
