I love playing with Google maps. It really doesn’t have any redeeming qualities that I see as far as using it for library purposes. Of course it can be used as a ready reference source if a patron needs directions. I like the fact that you could switch between map and satellite images. There is even a feature that lets you track gas prices around your area.
I’m sure there are ways you could incorporate Google maps into library services. I just don’t see the need. Like I said, it is a great source for directions and a few other oddities but patron participation would be negligible.
