ALA Trends Information Commons

Found blog by The Librarian in Black about trends she thinks will be addressed at the ALA Conference.

Top Technology Trends

By Sarah Houghton-Jan

I'm a couple of years into my time on the LITA Top Technology Trends committee. I like it a lot. It forces me to stop and think a bit, process, all that information I've been absorbing over the months. I've just posted my trends for the upcoming ALA conference I don't claim to have anything revolutionary, but take a gander if you wish.

Nashville Library Teen Site

By dv6939

Check http://www.library.nashville.org/teens/teenweb.asp for teens. Great ideas for what to do in your library for the teens. Found it on The Untamed Librarian website. My local library does a good job ith the childrens' programs but the teens' programs are lacking. It is usually an afterthought kind of program and not enough of them to get a real pattern going for bringing in that age.
