<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Century Gothic"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic"'>With new technologies emerging every day
libraries are constantly seeking ways to integrate them into their
services. One of these new technologies is QR Codes. QR codes are
square barcodes that can hold much more information than traditional
“multiple-bar” barcodes. Individuals and companies are using
these barcodes to easily and quickly connect people with information such as
URLs, vcards, email addresses, videos and more. The article discusses
what QR codes are, how they are used, and different ways that libraries have
used them.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
