Create a Sense of Place for the Mobile Learner

Abstract

“Sense of place” no longer applies only to the physical library. All students are distance learners to one extent or another, and all distance services must be considered as a single virtual learning commons. Librarians at Bucks County (PA) Community College implement and integrate current teaching, learning, virtual reference, and mobile access technologies at reasonable cost and create online learning spaces that bring students to the library no matter where they are.
