Transportation is a vexed issue in the United States. Most of the country’s infrastructure is built around cars, but social and environmental concerns have created new support for public transportation. In this installment of ✨LibTech Tools✨, hosted by Choice editor and publisher Rachel Hendrick and information services industry expert Gary Price, Gary introduces Pantograph, an app that provides real-time data from public transportation services in the US. Map and train nerds will love this resource, but it also provides an interesting perspective for students and scholars of an important issue.
