Librarians have well-established relationships with a variety of vendors; we interact with them at conferences and read about their products in our journals. Over the past several years, Google has been steadily introducing a variety of on-line tools that are becoming integrated into our everyday research and entertainment experiences. In addition to the more well-known search functions, Google offers a wide array of tools that allow us to write, create, collaborate, share, publish, and analyze. Learn the latest about Google's foray into services traditionally offered by libraries, museums, and schools. Together we will explore the potential impact Google could have on your library.
