iPods in the building

The Hixson tech department has recently acquired iPod touches for building use. The main purpose for this purchase was to continue to add to our video equipment arsenal.

In the past Flip cameras did the trick, and the company was doing well, then Kodak came out with some clever little cameras which were an improvement to the Flip. Unfortunately both companies have gone bankrupt. The primary reason being the increase in quality of phone cameras and the increase in number of people with these devices.

Back to the iPods, now available for check out...

Our new devices both act as a camera, a video camera, a portable audio recording station, and what ever ones imagination can create. If you have a specific need for an iPod touch, they are only a Tech Req away. If you request for video recording equipment you may get one of these new pieces of equipment due to the others being checked out.

If you'd like to check out what apps we currently have available check in with our local librarian media specialist, JoAnne Williams, or stop on by the media center and take a look at one of the devices.

Any app that is available free to download is also only a tech req away.

Take a look:
