Orange libraries give patrons access to digital magazines on computers - by David Breen, Orlando Sentinel | The Information Professional | Scoop.it
Orange libraries give patrons access to digital magazines on computers - Patrons of the Orange County Library System can now read hundreds of magazines without setting foot inside a branch.

The system recently rolled out a service that allows library patrons to view and download about 250 magazines on computers, tablets or smartphones.

The service, a partnership between the electronic newsstand Zinio and audio-book publisher Recorded Books, is free to anyone with a library card.

By Meredith Schwartz:

"Kansas State University Salina and Kansas Wesleyan University partnered to create a graphic novel that explains how to conduct effective library research. Heidi Blackburn, undergraduate services librarian at Kansas State Salina, and Kate Wise, associate librarian at Kansas Wesleyan, worked with Kansas State Salina student Greg Charland to create storyboards. Blackburn and Wise wrote the instructional portion, and Charland co-wrote and illustrated the result: Legends of the Library Ninjas: A Quest for Knowledge."
