The proliferation of mobile apps has changed the ways how we search for and access information. Increasingly, the mobile platforms have become the preferred method of accessing information on-the-go. Librarians and information professionals can harness the
potentials of these apps to provide innovative services, mobile content, and outreach. The speakers will discuss 40 apps in the categories of books and reference, business, health & fitness and government information, as well as to explore new ideas on how
to integrate these apps into a mobile strategy for mobile reference and outreach. Presented by Richard Le, San Francisco Public Library and Mel Gooch, San Francisco Public Library.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Edge is a new management and leadership tool that is helping libraries and local governments work together to achieve community goals. With this professional tool, libraries can be better positioned to
address community issues – like creating a stronger economy, ensuring workforce development and leading lifelong learning. Through an easy to use suite of tools, Edge supports libraries in making strategic decisions and identifying areas for improvement. The
Edge Toolkit gives libraries a look into their local data, from operations to partnerships and programming, to assess how their community is using the technology and how best practices can be put into place to align future growth and services with community
priorities. It also provides useful resources to package and showcase the data to other community leaders. Presented by Samantha Becker, University of Washington.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
