Nearbles, sendables, or extendables: Beacon technology is a new way to reach your patrons on their mobile devices inside or outside the library. Get the basics; hear about current and planned uses of the beacons inside the library and “off-site”; and find how the beacons work, how the app interacts with the beacons and ILS, and the legal maze and patron privacy issues that arose during development.
