May+2012+meeting+minutes

** Minutes ** ** May 1, 2012 **
 * IPAD/Tablet USER GROUP **
 * Cases, Ghost Wrap- generally the group felt that some type of screen protector or ghost wrap is desirable for IPADs. Rachel and Yosef discussed the one they used which can be purchased and applied at Best Buy for approx. $15.00. Mark is very satisfied with his ghost wrap which encases the entire IPAD. Sheila brought an example of the Zaggfolio that the Qs in CILA will be using. Sammi is interested in this for ES and Tracy for Resource Room.
 * Motorola Updates – Heather was not in attendance so there were no updates on our relationship with Motorola.
 * CILA Pilot Program Update – Sheila indicated that the IPADs has been purchased, however the cases are on back order. Most Qs have picked them up anyways and are using other cases for the short term. Sam will have a standing agenda item in his monthly meetings for Qs to share ideas with each other on uses for IPADs in the CILA program. Carl, Sheila and Don will meet with the group in July to gather feedback on the pilot program.
 * Deployment of IPADs – Don was not able to attend this meeting. Sheila will ask Don to send an email to the group with an update on the deployment of the IPADs from the Sun Times grant and the Guenther donation. Sheila informed the group that Mr. Guenther indicated that he might be sending more IPADs. Sheila also shared the baseline of IPAD use that CAP had created that will be used to show the impact of the additional IPADs on the services provided.
 * IPAD/Tablet Training – Kelly indicated that there had been no further progress on developing training since the Training Dept. does not yet have an IPAD. Sheila will address this with Don. The group discussed the Susan Norwell training since a number of members attended. In general the feedback was positive and the group would like to see further training offered from her if possible. Sheila informed the group that PAL would be looking into having her come to the program to evaluate and make recommendations for each participant in the use of IPADs.
 * Wireless Connections – Don was unable to attend. Sheila will ask him to provide an update via email.
 * Wiki Space – Sheila ask Susan to provide an update to the group via email since she was unable to attend.
 * Sharing of Ideas – The group shared some new ideas for the use of IPADs, etc. Yosef asked if it was possible to have “Drop Box” on the CITRIX server.
