Wrap-Up

I learned so much from doing this challenge - very helpful information.  I particularly liked the World Book resources for children and teens.  I have referred several patrons to this site already as well as my kids.  My son used the information for his report on the JFK assassinatin. 

I also referred a patron working on his GED to the Learning Express Library - exceptionally useful and timely resource.   The genealogy sites are always popular and now I know how to use them a bit better. 

Overall, this was such a wonderful learning experience.  I had no idea that the State Library provided ready-made handouts on these resources for our patrons - easy to print out and have available.  I would encourge all SD librarians to take advantage of this experience; there is so much to learn.

Thank you to Julie and Jane for all of the time you have taken to make this a worthwhile class.  Obviously, it takes alot of your time, but  we appreciate it greatly!!
