Digital signage in public libraries

The world is changing rapidly in the last few decades, this is clear to all. Important establishments, behaviors and business lines are long gone… (Remember the Automatic Video Machine? Asking people in the street for directions?). Surprisingly enough, the public libraries are not dead, and even flourishing! How can it be? I believe the reason is the social impact.

Seriously speaking, I don’t think that in technology (and especially in digital signage platforms) we have an ultimate solution. Every project is different, every customer is different and surely, solutions differ due to needs, costs, demands, tastes, budget and other aspects.
