Compilation of ideas for School Libraries: Launching a collaborative project blog
by S.L. Faisal 31 Aug '16

31 Aug '16

Dear Professionals, School Libraries are live only when students are engaged. A library in a school can greatly support the entire curriculum which is based on developing 21st century learning skills through interesting and enjoyable reading or information/digital literacy activities. An initiative has begun in the form of a blog ( https://schoollibraryideas.wordpress.com/ ) to compile workable school library ideas, activities, tips, tricks, techniques, or anything worthy related to school libraries. It is conceived as a collaborative project in which any one interested in school libraries can join and contribute. Post your ideas directly if you have a WordPress account. If not, send a request for an invitation to become a contributor. Or just mail your idea to libidea(a)gmail.com. Contributors are requested to briefly present the idea with a title and a short description or example. Nearly 150 activities are already listed on the Blog under four categories, namely, Library ideas for Classes I-V, VI-X, XI-XII and the whole school.These activities may be conducted during the assigned library hours or periods. Many activities are less time consuming but highly engaging. I would like to acknowledge many people who shared their ideas and with a special mention to Ms Usha Mukunada, well known library professional, educationalist and founder-member of Centre For Learning, Bangalore. You may visit the School Library Ideas blog at https://schoollibraryideas.wordpress.com/ Thank you S.L.Faisal Librarian Kendriya Vidyalaya, Pattom Thiruvananthapuram-695 004 Kerala, India Mobile: +91 9447699724 http://slfaisal.com https://librarykvpattom.wordpress.com http://kvlibrarians.grou.ps -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
