Apps, Cool library

Good librarians should abandon their books, web sites, blogs, and tweets in favor of the latest library co-opted  technology: “apps.” Start referring to all of your library's books, web sites, blogs, and tweets as “cool library apps” and they will suddenly be relevant again.

Ask the readers: What is your favorite library "app"?

I think my favorite app is the one I stick in books after I check them out to patrons-"bookmarks"!

We have these cool apps that don't drain your battery, are 100% recyclable, and are interesting as all heck: books.
