Praise for webinar series: Using Emerging Technology to Improve Your School Library Program
"Thanks! I am so excited about all the opportunities I am learning about through this forum! Thanks so much for offering it!"

Irene Kwidzinski, Library Media Specialist and New England AASL L4L Coordinator, "I just received my CE certificate for attending last night's edWeb webinar on Best Practices with Michelle Luhtala sponsored by Follett. And it was all free. Way Cool."
"I want to thank you for this course as it has inspired me to step outside my comfort level and start making partnerships with for instance the public teen librarian who has access to tons of ebooks. I am trying to get ereaders here for kids to sign out in order to use her collection. Also, I am now partnering with a very tech savvy French language teacher. We are joining together to teach staff how to use emerging technology to build content in their classes. She and I will demonstrate the techniques at staff meetings and I will support teachers by facilitating in learning the "how- to" on their prep time in the library. I now also have a vision of how social media can be used to enhance my library program, and even though my blog is still vastly underutilized, I have hope for the future in trying Facebook and Twitter now that our board is easing up on the filters."
