Have to agree with comment by @Williambadke in this case, especially his last sentence: “If you want to consult with the people who...talk to your academic librarians.” #digitalliteracy #digitalfluency #librarians #highereducation
Just because students own digital devices does not mean that they've developed digital literacy er.educause.edu/blogs/2019/4… #StudentSuccess
"Yes, I'm still an advocate for experimentation with technologies that can enhance the student experience. However, there's a cautiousness that's been creeping into my consciousness." (could have written that myself)

.@EBSCO Quick question re EBSCO ebooks, how long is temporary in this case? Does it reset in 24hrs? -Thx
From your page: "If you have reached your printing limit, the option to print or save eBook pages will be temporarily unavailable." connect.ebsco.com/s/article/…

Anyone from @EdSurge or #OER community able to tell me if this comparison of course platforms is up to date and accurate? Have a faculty member asking about CogBooks and am talking to them about @lumenLearning edsurge.com/product-reviews/…

Well written piece by @rschon - Important read re #libraries #Elsevier & others -his hypothesis: "the pricing power among the largest publishers for their big deals has declined and the equilibrium price for journal subscriptions may therefore decline as well."
