All about the books, the library, & technology

I am starting this long overdue blog to chronicle the professional information I gather at conferences, in my daily work as a library media & technology specialist, and as a teacher. As well I will include my commentary on the books I read and the knowledge I gain as the mother to three boys and soon an adopted daughter. I say long overdue, because I have been a library teacher in the Chicago Public School system for 17 years. I have been using blogs for many years and should have made a professional blog long ago. I teach library and computer skills to over 700 students in a K-8 Chicago public school. I am a National Board Certified teacher with a doctorate in instructional technology, a masters degree in library science, and a bachelor of science degree in elementary education.
