"Taking Mobile to the Next Level"

Are you interested in developing new features for your library's mobile
site?  Are you looking for new ways to reach out to iPhone users and
mobile-savvy patrons?  If so, join us for the RUSA MARS Hot Topics
Discussion Group at Annual Conference in Washington D.C., on Saturday, June
26, from 1:30-3:30 p.m. in the Beacon Hotel Overlook Room. Our topic will
be "Taking Mobile to the Next Level" and we'll have presenters from several
libraries who are doing new and cool things with their mobile sites.  Among
the topics discussed will be interactive maps, QR codes, dynamic hours
information, and mobile interfaces to databases, as well as what promises
to be a lively discussion about how to make these features go live when
your library has limited time and resources.  Of course, there will be time
for Q&A, so come to learn more, or to share your library's experiences.
Bring your friends!  For more information, contact Anne Houston, Chair of
Hot Topics, at ahouston at virginia.edu.
