The AASL is a division of the ALA and the only national professional membership organization for school librarians. This is an important source to help me stay up-to-date with national topics, issues, and events. I just became a member of this organization and look forward to the member benefits. The benefits include their journal Knowledge Quest; the Learning Library including webcasts and podcasts; and the member forum. I feel all of these will be very important sources of information for my library career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The VAASL represents the state of Virginia at the ALA and AASL conferences. I became a member of VAASL in order to connect with other librarians in Virginia and specifically in my region. These connections will help me further my learning and growth in the field. I also like having a network of professionals in my state and region that are facing a lot of the same issues. Facing some of the same local issues enables us to have a better conversation about what we are experiencing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ALSC is a division of the ALA. It is the largest organization dedicated to children’s library services. Because I want to be an elementary school librarian, it is important to stay current in this area. Information on continuing education, best practices, and creative programming are things I plan on using from this site. In addition, I will be able to build a network of children’s librarians, publishers, and literature experts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matt Miller, the founder of this website, offers a lot of useful information about using technology and tools in the classroom or library. Since I know how important technology is , I will use this site to learn about and incorporate new tech tools and ideas in my lessons. In addition to technology information, the site also has blogs on brain science, back-to-school, student engagement, and more. He also offers a free Digital Summit Conference in December that I plan to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SLJ is a print and digital journal for library professionals. They offer news, booklists, book reviews, advocacy information, diversity books and media, and much more.

The Bulletin is a book review journal focusing on children’s books. Each review includes information on the book’s content, quality of format, reading level, and suggestions for how to use it in your curriculum. As a librarian it is important to have reliable information about the books that will go into your collections. I will use this site to help me decide which books would be best to include in my own school library. This will help me in building diverse and inclusive collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Renovated Learning website’s main focus is starting and growing a makerspace. Since I want to have a makerspace in my future library, I want to gather all the information I can in order to have a successful one. There are so many suggestions on materials, technology, workshops, best practices and more for makerspaces on this site. It is valuable information to help me get started when I am ready to create or grow my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EdTech focuses on technology tools, topics, and issues facing educators. They offer a personal digital dashboard, email newsletter, and quarterly print magazine. Since it is vital to be competent and confident in the use of technology as a librarian, I will use this source to help me stay up-to-date and informed about current and future topics in the educational technology world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

School Librarians United is a podcast about the everyday issues and challenges of running a successful school library. I think it is important to hear about what other school librarians are facing and how they deal with it. It seems to make it even more real when you hear someone tell it in their own voice. I will listen to these podcasts in the hope of learning tips on what to do right, what to avoid, and how to deal with challenges in order to run a successful school library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
