Help people find mobile solutions, which can lead to saving gas, paper, and tons of other consumable resources! 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

"mobile solutions"
Interesting! What kind of mobile solutions are out there? How can we use them at work every day in order to save energy? Do you find this valuable?

GPS, telenav for finding the most efficient routes. All sorts of communication solutions provide a number of ways for your team to keep in touch without even being in the office. IMs can exist on mobile phone networks, which take a lot less energy to remain on than PCs or laptops. Do you find this valuable?

Another mobile solution is already available to you. Millennium iii should have a function that you can enable, allowing patrons to request that call numbers be sent to their cell phones via text message. Aside from being green (saving paper) and eliminating the need to write call numbers on your hands, it's just plain cool! Look into it. I'm not sure what version you're running there. Do you find this valuable?

OMG that's so cool! I had no idea that there was something out there like this. I'm absolutely sure that we don't have Millennium iii, but perhaps it's time for an upgrade?? Do you find this valuable?
