Technology Services Now Include Integrated Mobile and Messaging Solutions for Libraries to Add More Library Services to Mobile Devices, Increase Work Efficiencies and Improve Patron Relationship Management Functions.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 1, 2010 -- Mosio, the leader in text messaging (SMS) solutions for libraries, today announced that over 500 academic and public libraries in the U.S. now use its text message reference solution, Text a Librarian, to service patrons and students.

Quick! You have 5 minutes to tell your colleagues about a great reference program, resource, service, or idea (maybe even about what you think will be the future of reference).

We’re looking for ideas that inspire and engage our students and patrons and make their lives easier and better. Maybe you'll tell us about a new technology that will change the way we do business. Or one that just makes it easier for users to reach professional help at the library.

San Francisco, CA, March 18, 2010 — Mosio, the leader in text messaging solutions for libraries, today announced a partnership with Amigos Library Services to bring their Text a Librarian service to Amigos member libraries.
