When you think of an iTunes or iPod music library, odds are you think of a folder stored on a hard drive somewhere, full of music files, videos and podcasts. But iTunes and iPods are starting to take hold in traditional libraries as well as the kind with stacks of books and card catalogues; as a solution for librarians who are seeking to provide access to their digital collections.
Just as the iPod transformed the way individuals connect with their personal media collections, so too is it changing the way libraries help the public connect with mass media collections.
Refreshing
How refreshing to see a library offering more than boring audio cassettes! This kind of thing not only attracts people to the library but also enhances the image of libraries from boring to interesting.
