I See It

The End Is In Sight

We have covered quite a few topics this past week.  We have discussed 3D printers, QR codes, and even the novel idea of gamifying library services among other topics.  I must say that I enjoyed moderating a discussion post more than I thought I would.

We are about to start our last week of Maymester in which another round of discussions will begin, another paper is to be written, and even a poster is to be created.  The next 5 days is sure to be as busy as the prior 17.  The only words of wisdom I have for my fellow classmates are to knuckle down and run for the finish line.  I’ll meet you there with a MLIS7505 badge and pillow.

R2 - QR - D2

A QR or quick response code is a great way to send someone directly to your website.  A typical QR code looks like a bunch of random black and white squares, or like a checkerboard fell on its head.  I added a little custom color to my code in order to make it similar to my page logo.

In order to give you a better idea of QR functionality I’m going to send you to my fun, side business Facebook page.  I wish I had thought of QR codes when I had my business cards printed, but I missed out on that train.

I created this QR code with Beqrious using three easy steps. 

1) Select the type (enter your URL) 

2) Customize QR code (pick a color) 

3) Download File.

Quick and easy.  The next step is to market it everywhere.
