20. REACTIONS
¡ For the most part, our data reinforced our anecdotal
experience of the needs and wants of the users
¡ Librarians were most interested in current and
popular technologies and issues that were affecting
their practice at the time, though they also seemed to
have an eye to the future

21. TECHNOLOGY RAC RECOMMENDATIONS
¡ Combine resources to address the barriers brought to light in
the sur vey
¡ Use information about user interest/need to develop new CE
courses
¡ Work on ways to be able to of fer more technology courses
¡ Brainstorm deliver y methods that address established needs
and barriers
