It is an interesting programme which is trying to investigate how children actually use digital books. It is hoped that the research will help school librarians and teachers to adjust to the way in which pupils use E-books.With lots of resources, information, tips and news, this is an interesting site to peruse.

For all things Harry Potter. Presented as a wiki, the LeakyPedia has excellent information on Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, however the rest of the books and all of the films need additional information. This could be an opportunity for students who are fans of the books and/or the films to submit something to the site. The style of articles for the wiki has already been laid out, so students would be able to easily follow the templates on the site
