With 20 computers it was just crazy to hand out headphones on an individual basis, 2 years ago we put one set on every computer, wow...in 2 years we've replaced 5 due to lost and 5 due to wear/damage. So much easier to just risk $6 headphones, then make the student come get them and hand them out. Our stapler was the headphones.

Aaron is well recognized in the library profession as one of our more innovative thinkers about how to better serve the library user community through improved usability and design. I’m sure he’ll do a great job with the column, and I’ll look forward to reading future entries – and I encourage you to read it as well.
