Thing 9 - Google Tools


Google Tools offers some great applications. Although these types of application have been offered for quite some time, never have they been available for free. Having the ability to collaborate on projects together with a group makes for less email and attaching. It also helps free up storage space in your email outbox. Google Docs spreadsheet is Googles version of Excel. Its serves the purpose, but compared to Excel, doesn't allow you near the freedom as far as formating is concerned. It does however, allow the Library to post easily accessible presentation slides from computer classes that we have held in the past. This allows patrons to access slides from a class they attended. Overall, I give it an B+.
