ATG wants to know about Kindles Cris Ferguson 01 Jul 2008 20:07 UTC

Hello all,

In the April 2008 issue of Against the Grain, the Technology Left Behind
column discussed the applications and uses of Amazon's Kindle in
libraries.  This has been a hot topic in libraries lately, and we are
interested to hear what your libraries are doing with Kindles, if
anything.  Has your library bought a Kindle?  If so, are you lending it
out?  How are you using your Kindle?  If you haven't bought a Kindle, why
not?

On the ATG News Channel web site (http://www.against-the-grain.com/) we
have posted a brief poll, as well as a forum to discuss library use of
Kindles.  We invite you to visit the ATG News Channel and let us know what
you think of Kindles.  Links to both the poll and the forum are posted on
the front page of the site.  While you are there, please check out the
rest of the ATG News Channel and send us your feedback.  The site is
continuously under development, and we want to know what you would like to
see on the site.

Thanks,
Cris Ferguson
