Tapped In

There is a TappedIn session for Librarians today. More about that further down this message.

A quick read of a recent TappedIn session transcript led to these links:

If you're looking for more information about Literature, American History and Poetry, visit Shmoop. Here's a note from the organization..."We wanted to let you know
that we have instructions for how to cite Shmoop content (in MLA, ALA, or Chicago styles). Shmoop is an academically credible resource, produced by Ph.D.
and Masters students from Stanford and Berkeley. We want students and teachers to cite Shmoop with pride and confidence." http://www.shmoop.com/help/cite-shmoop

Transcripts of Past Sessions [pdf]

If you miss the above session or any other, you can still learn from it. The transcripts will eventually be online at TappedIn.
Reading the transcripts of TappedIn is akin to reading your great-grandmother's old letters. There's always something of value, but you have to skim through a lot of chit-chat to get to it.
Practical suggestions are always shared and often blended with links to resources that you might never hear about otherwise.

Calendar of Tappedin Sessions

There are lots of other sessions upcoming that will be of interest to teachers at all levels and library staff members. Register if you'd like to participate in a session. It's a simple process.

You can follow at least one of the leaders on Twitter. Sue Roseman @sroseman
