Written by Greetings all! For this module we will focus on planning for emerging technologies, participatory services of all kinds and the future. This is where we start to get very practical and focused on what’s happening with trends and technology in libraries and information centers. This is also the time to start thinking about the technologies, trends or participatory services you’d like to focus on for your remaining assignments.

➡️➡️➡️ FLUID DUE DATES are in effect. Use the original due dates as a guideline, but take the time you need to create meaningful and enjoyable work. Everything just needs to be completed by the last day of class. Please stay close to the reflection blogging dates, as this allows your classmates to read and respond to your work in a timely manner, fostering a richer discussion. Keeping up with those will help create a better exchange of ideas.
