- About Me:
- I'm a teacher-librarian in a Gr. 8-12 school. I maintain a blog (The Webfooted Booklady) which I use to discuss technology use in school libraries and YA reading. I also have a wiki at wic.wikispaces[dot]com which I use as a resource for teaching information literacy skills in the research process and web 2.0 tools.

Playing with Toondo
I just spent the last two days trying to move into the 21st century. We are (and I blush) finally moving to an automated system. The cataloguers are hard at work in my library as I type. It's going to be a steep learning curve and as with all technology there will be glitches but I am excited about the new possibilities that will open up.

grin--so it too me over a month to find this! I'm SO not into social networking mode..but starting to get back into it. Blogging again, etc. There is REALLY a lot to do here. Average book dates to 1968, no information literacy curriculum in place--or any other document, either (selection policy, challenge procedure, etc.) Bad, but kind of cool because it gives me plenty to do!
Hey, are you interested in being a Beta tester for Yahoo? I did it when they were testing their new search assist stuff, and apparently they have something new in the works. They want more librarians on the "team." here's the link, you'd like to do it. It's pretty fun, doesn't take long, and has some cool prizes, if anything like last time. (I won some amazing bluetooth headphones). Someone else won a GPS, etc.
Here's the link

Got your comment, but couldn't reply through Blogger, sooo..
Isn't that cool?
There's a program called Skitch (Mac only, unfortunately) that I'm beta testing. It allows you to take screen pics or upload photographs, then mark on them in various ways.
If you have a Mac, here's the link to request an invitation.

A colleague went to the inservice on May 26th and just raved about it. It's a bit funny that things I have been saying all year and he 'blew' off, he found absolutely fantastic at the seminar. Just goes to show that old dogs can learn new tricks.
Well done! :-)
Are you coming with ERAC to the Comox Valley on the 26th? I didn't sign up for it...there were only limited spots available and some newbies at my school snagged them.
