  • iRex Technologies, a spinoff of Royal Philips Electronics that already makes one of Europe’s best-known e-readers, plans to announce that it is entering the United States market with a $399 touch-screen e-reader.
  • The iRex has an 8.1-inch touch screen and links to buy digital books in Barnes & Noble’s e-bookstore and periodicals from NewspaperDirect, a service that offers more than 1,100 papers and presents them onscreen largely as they appear in print form.
  • The iRex can also handle the ePub file format, a widely accepted industry standard, which means that owners can buy books from other online bookstores that use ePub and transfer texts onto the iRex.

    What gives old books that ever-so-distinctive smell? Andy Brunning, a chemistry teacher in the UK, gives us all a quick primer with this infographic posted on his web site, Compound Interest. The visual comes accompanied by this textual explanation. Writes Brunning: Generally, it is the chemical breakdown of compounds within paper that leads to the production of 'old book smell'.

strategicplanning

shared by crowleyl on 08 Sep 18 - No Cached
  • without a strategic plan for a department, you cannot implement new initiatives successfully, nor can you plan changes or institute changes in thinking. Without a strategic plan, movement forward will always feel forced, slow and lacks critical conversations that must take place with all members of staff in order to have team “buy in”. In the formation of the strategic plan, it is the one time that all staff have input and can “own” the direction of the department as a whole.
  • As a library we are a strategic arm of the school, even if we are not mentioned directly, and if we are not mentioned directly, then that’s our fault for not doing enough to be important to the school plan.
  • Library strategic plan based on the goals of the school strategic plan
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • If you have a Library strategic plan that you wrote with your staff, but never talk to other departments about then how do you expect them to have “buy in”?
  • sent it to other Libraries or your personal learning network (PLN), then how do you know what you are missing that is critical Library functions?
  • no corresponding operational plan then you have not thought about how you are going to archive your goals in the strategic plan
  • if you do not review the plan with all your staff and see how far you have moved, then its just a bit of paper that makes you feel better and is not an item that you have action as a team.
  • ask everyone to write one goal based on the overarching goals setout in the School Strategic Plan. These are big picture statements.
  • highlight the main goals of the school strategic plan
  • 1. Tell your team that you are going to need them to review and read the school strategic plan.
  • Each individual sent these through to the Head of Library who combined and sent these to everyone removing who wrote what.
  • this was the main opportunity for all staff to have a chance to contribute to the strategic plan and the direction of the library for the next three years.
  • As the Head of Library I undertook the role of reading each goal and combining some goals together to ensure they incorporated the essence of each team members thinking.
  • From these I started to break out these goals into articulated statements that specifically looked at the library and what this meant day-to-day.
  • the strategic mission statement needs to be written which sums up the overarching goal of the plan
  • Once completed you need to send these goals out to the team for comment and any aspects that need clarification.
  • Once the fundamentals have been articulated in the goals and then corresponding support statement as Head of Library I need to present these back to the Curriculum Leadership group for comment. In addition a meeting with individual departments needs to be conducted to hear what they require from the Library going forward over the next three years.
  • The plan is then reworked and specific items for each department are highlighted in a separate document.
