Recently, more Middle Eastern Institutions of higher education have become interested in the Learning Commons (LC) Model that has been popular in North America, Europe and Australia. The collaborative culture of the people …

Mobile Technologies & Academics: Do Students Use Mobile Technologies In Their Academic Lives And Are Librarians Ready To Meet This Challenge?, Angela L. Dresselhaus, Flora Shrode

Mansfield Library Faculty Publications

In this paper we report on two surveys and offer an introductory plan that librarians may use to begin implementing mobile access to selected library databases and services.

A second survey, conducted with librarians, gave us an idea of the extent to which responding libraries offer mobile access, their future plans for mobile implementation, and …
