Welcome
This blog is by Jason Puckett. I'm the Librarian for Communication and Educational Technologies at GSU in Atlanta, meaning I'm the liaison for the Journalism and Speech programs and I also work with instructional technology. I write about libraries, teaching, technology, fun, and the places those things intersect.

A community college library director sent an email to collib-l yesterday about this product indicating plans to use it in his new learning commons. I still don’t see this as an inviting academic library/learning commons product.
