<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:15.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">The iPads are setup using a combination of the Apple configurator tool and iTunes to hold about 40 apps. You’ll note that the investment in a large branch (10 iPads) is about $7,500. As you know libraries only get a very small discount from Apple through large resellers like CDW-G. What has sometimes come up as a problem is that you need a credit card to create an ITunes account and smaller libraries often don’t have “corporate” credit cards.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:15.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">The iPads circulate in-house for two hours using the circulation system (no PCRes or whatever) and the same loan rules as our laptops.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:15.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">When the iPad is returned it is placed in the charging stand and reset to factory settings and re sync’d with iTunes. Using the most recent version of the configurator simplifies this process by just restoring from an image. Elapsed time between uses about 5 minutes.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:15.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">This has been a very quiet rollout with lots of time devoted to staff training. But, with school starting we expect demand to increase.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
