    We have the City of Gold series in our library but sent on the Tithe series to Jen at NBCHS. I read both of those series and felt the second one was better at a high school. Has anyone seen the graphic novel based on Twilight?

Kindles in the Classroom? « Georgia Library Media Association - 1 views

  •  
    ""One reason we like Kindles better than using a book because we can change the font size. We like the largest font because it makes us read faster. Another nice thing is to use the dictionary when we don't know what a word means right away. Also, another feature is we like the fact we don't have to carry around alot of books because the Kindle has a variety of titles downloaded onto it.""

Digital Wizardry in Children's Literature - Gadgetwise Blog - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    Are we ready for this... what is now available in our libraries??? "Once upon a time - in the 1990s- e-books for children came on CD-ROMs, and for digital wizardry, offered only mouse clicks and hidden pop-up-like animations. Not anymore. Touch-screens and app stores have given new tricks to old books, and the number of new titles is blossoming."

Best Children's Books of 2009 - 11/2/2009 - Publishers Weekly - 5 views

  •  
    From accounts of civil rights heroes, to harrowing (and hopeful) stories about contemporary teenagers, to picture books that perfectly capture friendship, curiosity, or flights of fancy, 2009 held a treasure trove of wonderful reading for children of all ages and interests. Narrowing them down to just 30 titles wasn't an easy task, but we believe the following books stand out for their remarkable writing, indelible characters, and arresting artwork.

Get to Effective Weeding - 11/15/2009 - Library Journal - 3 views

  •  
    An interesting take on weeding.... I've discovered that, whether our expertise is paleontology or board books, most of what holds us back from weeding is psychological. I'm reminded of that first step in most recovery programs: "We admitted we were powerless over [blank]-that our lives had become unmanageable." So, here's a program for people whose collections have become unmanageable-and it's only eight steps.
