We will briefly look at the history of wearable technology then discuss where it stands today and why so many people are eager to wear their technology. We will discuss how this new trend might affect your library and what impact it might have for you and your patrons. Finally, we will be looking at some new and interesting wearable tech that will be coming out soon, or may already be on wrists, hands, eyes and more.
