[OPLINLIST] Technology Petting Zoo

[Nancy Levin]

Gloria we have done it both ways, as a tech demo with a piece of
equipment owned by the library or a staff member, and with the Geek
Squad (for example) from Best Buy.

Subject: [OPLINLIST] Technology Petting Zoo

We have heard that other libraries have hosted a "technology petting
zoo"
where someone brings in a variety of electronic toys (cell phones,
i-pods,
etc) to the library and patrons can look at them and ask questions.

Has anyone done this?  Did you ask a company or store to present the
program?

We are very interested in doing something like this but would like to
hear
from other libraries that have hosted a similar program.

Thank you!!!
