Where to Find Widgets & Blidgets

Widgets and blidgets currently in our LibGuides came from a variety of sources; some originated on library web pages and others were created using free commerical web 2.0 resources. Jodi and I will continue to add widgets we think are useful, so check back periodically for new ones you may want to use in your LibGuides.
