Rethink+Collection

For the last couple of years, I have been developing my ebook collection through the Gale Virtual Reference Library. We have also just added NetLibrary to our select computers allowing teachers and students to download audiobooks.

I have always had book displays in the library. During these last few months, I have learned about tools to add to my online presence.

LibraryThing I now embed a LibraryThing wigdet on my homepage. I use boombox to advertise my ARHS Book Clubs choice read.

I use GoogleForms as a way to garner student requests for books.

On my list this year: Have my library TA's create book trailers as an alternative to a traditional book review. Host a book trailer contest for my Teen Book Club.
