THING 18

I am familiar with Google docs and think it is a great tool. It's a wonderful way to share documents with groups whose members are not all in one location. Additionally, it's great for people who don't have the Microsoft Office system installed on a computer. I also played around with Zoho writer and found it to be great fun. I created a recipe template using a template in their library and can see how using this would be so easy for people to share receipes. This is just one small example, again I think it would be useful for groups or individuals who need to create simple documents but don't have access to Microsoft. These tools can be used in the public library setting to assist customers in creating documents, providing easy to follow templates and publish anything from booklets to resumes.
