Hi Bohyun,

Here at Dartmouth College Library we are in the process of pulling together our first mobile web presence for the library. Either as a 15 minute presentation or in discussion I would be happy to talk about the process we've gone through to this point, how we pulled together information on how to start, what we read, how we assessed and who we surveyed for information, and our next steps. 

Our goal is to have this fully operational by First-Year Orientation in September 2011. I think our experience, at least so far, might be helpful to others as they move in this direction as well.

As I said, I would be happy to present briefly about this or just share in a discussion. No matter what, I'll be there!

Thanks,
