Google is now more than just a search engine. Google offers a range of
applications which improve communication, productivity, and for searching
the web. This workshop will explore several of Google's free applications
including Google Docs, Google Sites, iGoogle, Google Calendar, and custom
searches and discuss how these tools will not only help you become more
productive personally but how they can add value to existing and future
library services.
The first week of this workshop explore applications that participants can
use to improve their personal productivity and organization. The second week
of this workshop will explore different office applications. The final two

participants will need an existing or create a new Google account.
