External
resources
Discussion Points:
- What might some of these be?
- Main idea: you are responsible to linking to resources beyond your MC walls. What might some strategies be? (Your catalog is one...)
- GALILEO (often in danger of being lost due to
under-use in the K-12 arena); handout
from
UGA librarians
- Web, of course
- Don't forget human resources...
- ...and other libraries (in-system; public; academic)
- great idea to bridge to college and public libraries, especially for high school SLMPs
- look around for a collaborative librarian - consider sponsoring a joint program
- Scordato (R&D 70-71) describes some strategies for this
- Ideas include: summer reading programs;
library card sign-up sessions; field trips; author visits (Scordato,
2004)
- ...and local institutions like museums and zoos, which often have educational missions and departments or personnel
- Organizing all of this
