Publisher Synopsis
"A reference shelf treasure, Hennig's highly adaptable work suits the needs of school and public libraries, home schoolers, and college and university education departments." - VOYA "An essential reference tool for any librarian looking to stay relevant." - Library Journal "In a growing world of mobile technology, Nicole Henning's Apps for Librarians is a timely reference book for those in the library field. . . . Librarians who have not had any experience purchasing and/or downloading apps outside of a phone or tablet's factory setting will greatly benefit from this book. More technologically-experienced librarians could alsobenefit from this book, especially the Audience and Example sections. . . . Henning uses her expertise to guide readers inthe right direction and maintains accessible language throughout each section. . . . Overall, this book is highly recommended for librarians who have not yet incorporated mobile apps into their work, and would like a strong foundation in doing so." - Technical Services Quarterly "I would recommend this book for purchase because it focuses on particular categories of apps that librarians should be comfortable using and recommending, presents a helpful rubric for evaluating apps, and serves as a good source of ideas for library programming opportunities that incorporate apps for mobile devices." - Theological Librarianship "Librarians from all types of libraries who desire to learn more about how to use apps successfully will enjoy this book. Apps for Librarians successfully navigates the often complicated and overwhelming world of apps for the app beginner, and the more experienced user will appreciate the insights and recommendations." - Serials Review Read more...
