Week 3-Thing 5

I had the pleasure of attending "A Chocolate Tech Affaire" last week in San Jose. Fun and Yummy! It was excellent and gave a great overview of some of the Library 2.0 tools we are using, including Flickr. Rumor has it that it will be repeated in Contra Costa County in August. Don't miss it! However, it might be repetitious for those who have completed School Library Learning 2.0. The chocolate would still be worth going for.

So this is the photo I uploaded from Flickr. We have developed a tradition of inviting classes (usually 2nd grade) to decorate a table based on each of the California Young Reader Medal nominee books. They are on display during Open House and bring lots of traffic into the library. It's fun and the kids get excited about their creations and "their" books.

I will play around with some Flickr stuff maybe later. I know there are some amazing things that can be done with this tool. At least I set up an account and managed to post all 5 CYRM photos.
