Remember 23 Learning 2.0 Things? New Things are still being added on the Learning 2.1 blog so I've been keeping up, more or less. I'm not continuing to try everything out, but I'm at least reading the posts.

It worked fantastically and the patron was able to open and print the files she so desperately needed. Triumph!
