Click! Technology and Libraries in Action
Click! is a series of technology training sessions, open to all OSU Libraries' faculty and staff.
The sessions will cover technology topics including blogs, SecondLife and social networking sites. Attendees will get a background of each topic and learn how they might be useful for libraries, in library work and for our patrons.
