Welcome to the blog of LMS Knowledge Brokers. We are a group of school library media specialists who want to use this blog to discuss information literacy. Our goal is to engage students in a format that is compatible with how they receive and dispense information today. We invite any school library media specialist or colleague to post a comment.

Internet@Schools East 2006

I just got back from attending the Computers in Libraries Conference in Washington, D.C. The sessions were motivating and informative. I learned about virtual school libraries, podcasting, using blogs as a communication tool with students, RSS feeds and exactly what a wiki is! Excellent speakers abounded, especially keynote speaker, Joyce Valenza. I also enjoyed hearing Alice Yucht, Marjorie Pappas and Johanna Riddle. The strand for school library media specialists was called Internet@Schools. I recommend this conference for anyone interested in information literacy.
