Librarian Lisa's Favorite Apps

1) Evernote
Can also be accessed via computer.  Allows for easy organization of notes, images, and web pages.



2) Google Calendar
Another that is a computer application as well. For android users my favorite part of this is the widget that shows the users schedule for several days.  That quick reminder has saved me more than once.

3) Snapseed (and then Photo Squarer to upload to Instagram)
A great app for editing your photos before posting.  Allows users to make subtle changes or over the top changes. 



4) Duolingo
Want to learn another language? Or just want to get some basics down for traveling out of the country? Give this app a try. Combines reading, writing, listening, and speaking to help users improve their language skills.

5) Goodreads
A social network to rate and recommend books.
