Introduction

In my 25 year career in libraries, I have served in various roles. I started out as a School Library Media Specialist in Norfolk (VA) Public Schools, working with Pre-K through 5th grade. After moving to Washington State, I found my first library job working in a prison library. A challenging experience and still one of my favorites. I moved on to become an Electronic Government Information Librarian, which has expanded to include other digital projects and changed my title to Digital Collections Librarian. So, as you can probably tell, I spend a great deal of time online. This allows me the opportunity to discover many wonderful resources. I must still think like a School Library Media Specialist because whenever I find an especially good resource I immediately start thinking about how it could be used by students and/or teachers. I have shared my collection of resources several times at the Washington Library Media Association Conferences and I have created a delicious account of my collection. But it is time to expand and share further through this blog. I hope to post often and will try to work my way through my current collection as well as add new finds. I hope you will find this a useful blog and will share it with others.
