As I was preparing a list of banned/challenged books for the September 26th ediition of The Scoop, I ran across an interesting statistic.

If you read the recent issue of The Scoop, you probably saw the SPLAT article about the new technologies that all librarians should be aware of and utilize:

In the School Zone section of the Oct. 10 issue of The Scoop, we talk about the importance and benefits of collaboration. We'd love to hear your personal stories of successes and challenges. This is also a great opportunity to practice blogging for those of you taking the Splat 101! course...!

For those libraries participating in Every Child Ready to Read and Read to Me First Book, the parent evaluations and surveys are now available in Spanish. They can be accessed on each program's individual webpage (Programs and Services/Read to Me/First Book or Every Child Ready to Read)

The new issue of ICFL's free youth services e-newsletter is on-line now. In this issue: Summer reading news and resources, funding opportunities, award-winning books, current and upcoming events, and more!
