Get an overview of this emerging technology, find out what innovative programs and services are being developed in schools and libraries, and have the opportunity to get some hands-on experience too.  This is a great way to not only learn and try this technology, but to network with other professionals in the field to think about innovative ideas you can bring back to your own schools and libraries this Fall.
