Tech Savvy Schools in London (UK)

Hi I will be in London on the 2nd of April and would really like to visit a learning resources centre or school media centre if possible. I am hoping to see how other schools handle their digital resources, e-books, kindles as well as share some ideas on collaborative projects and ICT teaching and learning at each of our schools. From what I can tell many schools will be closed for Easter but I have heard that some may actually be open. If you work at such a school or know of one in the London area could you please reply to this discussion?

Thanks everyone,

Jen

Dear Jen: I cannot provide you with what you want, but I was relieved to realize that I am not alone in the quest for "how to´s" toward the future of libraries! I have to submit a plan for library improvement and feel very much in a "cloud"!!! Unfortunately not the productive cloud!!!

Hope you are lucky! Please post interesting ideas should you find them!

Thanks,

Graciana

Hi Graciana,

I would love to share ideas with you. Here is the link to our library website. If you dig around a bit you might find some useful ideas for your library. We have been up and running now for 4 years but are constantly on the lookout for new ideas.
