Do you have an older iPad that is just sitting around idle? Why not use it for something productive such as interactive front desk signage?
The Stanford Engineering Library continues to partner with Oalla, a student-run interactive digital signage project, in the planning and development of signage apps that are relevant to libraries. A new Oalla app has been designed specifically for use with iPads that allows instant patron feedback. We are using the app to gain feedback on what services and equipment are important to our library users. Other uses may include displaying events, advertising products or services, or way finding. Oalla is free, easy to use and can put your previous generation iPads to good use. An iPad stand such as the Ipevo Perch can be used to prevent your iPad from walking away.
