Circles of Creativity by Camille Persin Pdf

Librarian Jim Hahn has carefully culled the over 500,000 available apps down to the 100 that are the absolute best for day-in, day-out library services. The guide covers apps for Apple and Android devices, including tablets. Each entry in this long-needed guide contains: (1) a basic summary of how each app operates, (2) at least one example of how that app can be used by a librarian, (3) one example of how it can help a library user access library services, (4) a section highlighting critical limitations and apps that may better serve a librarian's needs, and (5) the next possible iteration of the app. Entries are accompanied by a photo of the app in action, so this current guide is both descriptive and visual. Introductory and final chapters cover using apps in library settings and library services as well as what the future should bring in this area. This guide is intended as an introduction for those with little or no app experience and for those wanting to know more about app uses for information access.

Serving Grandfamilies in Libraries by Sarah Gough,Pat Feehan,Denise Lyons Pdf

Gough, Feehan, and Lyons have taken everything learned from their research on developing GrandFamily Resource Collections and leading grandfamily programming in several states and put it in this easy to use guide. They share the successes and failures of existing programs so other librarians can hit the ground running rather than trudge through a time-consuming and costly period of trial-and-error. It’s a lot more efficient to learn from someone else’s mistakes than to make your own. The target population, grandfamilies, and most specifically, grandparents raising grandchildren have become a statistically-significant group worthy of attention in many communities but library practitioners may not have explored further due to a lack of resources and money. Special features include: List of Web resources (government agencies, support groups, etc.) List of grants and funding opportunities Sample grant applications List of possible community partners for the library Sample surveys or some tactic for getting to know the needs of one’s target population Sample marketing plans Sample promotional materials Sample activity sheets Sample release forms, etc. With this practical and comprehensive guide, your library will be ready to jumpstart or easily expand a stellar program for the grandfamilies in your community.

Dragons for Kris by Galand A. Nuchols Pdf

Fearing to make a sound that would attract attention and perhaps prevent his escape, Kris sits in the dark on the edge of his perfectly made bed. It is 4:25 AM. His most precious possessions have been secretly stored down the street with friends. Grandpa finally arrived yesterday, driving King Arthur, an eighteen-wheeler truck. What will he tell Grandpa? Will Grandpa believe Kris's own uncle means him harm? Will Kris's secret plan to leave his uncle's home and live with his grandparents, work? These agonizing questions swirl in Kris's head until he hears a soft sound in the hall and then watches the doorknob slowly, silently turn. Who is coming into his room? Is it his grandpa or his uncle? Is it too late?

Squire With Fire by Joseph Cassis Pdf

Here is a delightful Medieval adventure, a story lovingly told within a story. In a dynamic unfolding, Grandpa delights seven-year-old Mac with tales about the brave squires and knights who populated their family history, including the famous knight in the Scottish Rothesay Castle who shares the same name. Mac is particularly curious about the ring Grandpa wears and its thrilling history: it once belonged to a squire with the dreams—the same dreams Mac now has, 600 years later. Squire With Fire illuminates and educates and even surprises. The dragon who plays the supporting role makes the lessons particularly exciting. Along the way, Mac learns about chivalry, bravery, ingenuity, and the role of humour in escaping tricky situations. Best of all, Squire With Fire explodes expectations around gender roles and throws wide the assumptions about what little girls and little boys might do with their lives.
