Is your library taking advantage of the free Add-ons for Firefox? One of
the great features of Firefox, the popular open-source web browser, is the
ability to create, share, and use add-ons, making Firefox a more flexible and
customizable tool than competing web browsers. Come to this hands-on training
to learn how you and your library can make use of these free tools. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
