Google Docs

This week's DLC was a great reminder for me to use Google Docs. They are just so handy when you work on two machines, eliminating the need to email yourself or use a flashdrive. This week I created a Google spreadsheet to track my staff's participation in the DLCs. Quick and easy and there when I need it.

I've used the docs previously in my grad coursework. Classmates used them to compile collaborative library policies and procedures. We also used them for research projects. I think they work very well for that purpose.

I'm hoping that this little taste will whet the appetites of staff and we can use them a bit more instead of firing emails back and forth. I always get lost in the crossfire.
