Week 7 # 16 Wikis

I looked at the different wikis created by librarians. I was impressed by Teacherlibrarian wiki created by Joyce Valenza. I offers icredible resources from Cool free tools, Very cool ideas to Information Literacy. The very cool idea "The Roaming Librarian- Book a La Carte" is one that I will try promoting it at both school I work. It will give a great opportunity to show case the new books and get kids to read. I have added links to OVMS webpage :
Library Links
Book Awards and Lists
Books for Middle and High School Age
