I'm really interested in this post, because I learned something: that librarians are concerned about providing seamless interaction between school and library. Maybe this is in the "d'uh" department and I need to get down to the library more often :-) "[Sugar on a Stick] means that a child can go to school, work on classwork, homework, notes, etc, with the ability to complete those same exact tasks in any location. It meants that parents will no longer be tasked with buying expensive software. It means that school systems can use older, slower computer systems and can upgrade less, which frees up money for other initiatives. It means that same student could come to the library and work in the computing environment that they’re used to. It means that libraries like Howard County, who are partners in education with the local school systems, could potentially further integrate and provide seamless interaction from school to the library." "It means that more resources will be available to more children." _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/marketing
