Thank you for your note; it was so nice of you. Right now I am in the process of outlining the paper--there is so much information, I only hope that it makes sense when I actually write it, but it is a lot of fun researching. I kinda get…"
Susan Lord replied to Liz Keating's discussion UNIT SEVEN (details and worksheet also available on ecollege website) in the group Information Storage and Utilization - OL2"Darcy, I'm so glad you are doing this, because I was interested in it as well. I can only hope that as the usage increases the price will go down. It will be interesting to know if there would be the ability to search for articles at an…"

Now I want to go buy myself a Kindle. ; )

Susan Lord replied to Liz Keating's discussion UNIT SIX Discussion: Automation in the group Information Storage and Utilization - OL2"I liked the Westminster Public Library's catalogue the best, because it gave the details I needed, was easy to search, and had some nice "extras" such as table of contents and excerpts from the books. Auraria's catalogue seemed…"

This could be used by students to have their recordings done before they use the computer. It was…"
Susan Lord replied to Liz Keating's discussion UNIT FIVE DISCUSSION: Shelving-Art or Science? in the group Information Storage and Utilization - OL2"That is a tough one, but almost every researcher who looks at encouraging boys to read says graphic novels are very important entry points, and they don't have to be about superheroes, there are a lot of them about historical events and…"
Susan Lord replied to Liz Keating's discussion UNIT FIVE DISCUSSION: Shelving-Art or Science? in the group Information Storage and Utilization - OL2"Our catalogue department insists on using 741.5, and I hate it. I much prefer having the novels in with the other fiction or non-fiction, because then the students see the other books about what they are interested in or by the same author. It also…"

- Susan,
Thank you for your note; it was so nice of you. Right now I am in the process of outlining the paper--there is so much information, I only hope that it makes sense when I actually write it, but it is a lot of fun researching. I kinda get lost playing with the sites.
How is your paper going? I hope you are enjoying these last few weeks of summer vacation.

Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am a former high school science teacher and assistant principal, currently a relatively new teacher librarian in an elementary school. Quite a change in student populations, but not as different as I thought it would be. I have 2 sons, and too many pets and plants.
- Hobbies
- I think I remember having some before I started this degree...
Well, I love to read, and garden, and hike.
- Current position and employment location
- Teacher librarian in Adams 12
- Favorite Book:
- Right now, it is the Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, but that will change.
- Favorite Library:
- Boulder Public
- What professional development topics are you interested in learning more about?
- How students access information differently from computers than they do from printed text. It seems to be harder for them, and I can't figure out why.
