I found all of the little articles and websites that we looked at this week to be interesting. I was especially interested in the product from Intel that will read written text aloud. After working on my newsletter earlier in the semester, I have become really interested in assistive devices and I really hope to be able to provide for them in my library. This seems like a great product that would really help students with reading disabilites and I'm excited to see it marketed.
I was also interested in Zetero. Personally, I don't really like to research and becuase I want to be a librarian, I kind of feel like it's my dirty little secret. But, resources like this that help people to research and to help write bibliographies are something that I am always on the lookout for. I feel that there will probably be plenty of students in my school who also don't really enjoy research and if I can help them by directing them to a website like Zetero that will assist them in the process, maybe they will be able to get through it a little bit easier.
