Libraries are broke. This session is for libraries struggling to provide innovative web and technology services with little resources to devote to staff, software, or hardware. Web 2.0 and Library 2.0 ideas can sometimes seem impossible to implement. But we really can offer excellent online services to our users! Take advantage of the quick and free software, web services, and sites that any library can implement with minimal time or expertise. If your library has no money for services, less staff time than you did last year, and still want to have good tech and a substantial web presence, then this is the session for you!
