The url for this blog is http://bookminder.blogspot.com/2008/06/resources-for-librarians.html and it is titled The WebFooted Booklady for teacher-librarians: information literacy and the promotion of reading. The blog was posted by Lesley Edwards, a Teacher Librarian at a Secondary School. Lesley holds workshops to help integrate web 2.0 into classrooms.
This blog really drew me in because of the links listed to give further information on technology and instruction and how they collide. Several links lead to magazines or articles dedicated to my topic of interest. This gives me a place to find out more on my topic and receive practical advice and information from a variety of sources.
Resources for Librarians
My friend Hazel has booked marked some excellent sites for librarians in her del.icio.us account. Here are some of the goodies she has found:
The Teaching Librarian: Exploring the intersection of reference services, technology and instruction.
School Library Media Activities Monthly has some excellent articles on a wide variety of topics such as collaboration, search techniques and 21st century skills.
Resources for School Librarians offers a list of journals, listservs and sites for library research.
Some of my favourite periodicals, like School Library Journal, have many online offerings worth checking into.
Teacher Librarian The Toolkit page which offers excellent resources such as the Collaborative Program Planning and Teaching: Record of Unit of Study that covers all the bases when it comes to planning units. The image above shows a much more simplified version I use with my high school staff who are often too busy for meetings that last longer than a few minutes. [Click to enlarge.]
