Staying Current

In the creation of my own blog and website, I have found many other blogs and websites to visit/follow.  One of these is Buffy Hamilton's blog, The Unquiet Librarian (http://theunquietlibrarian.wordpress.com/).  She became a librarian after focusing on teaching English and integrating technology in her school, which is just what I did.  I think that preparation really allowed her to dive into her work as a teacher-librarian in a different way than others that were prepared differently.  I like the fact that she focuses on the modern library and how that might be different from traditional libraries that people are used to (hence, the unquiet).  She includes multiple presentations and resources for librarians and educators to use, and her posts include links, videos, pictures, and helpful quotes (among lots of other things) to assist in daily instruction and professional development.  I can't wait to use some of her dynamic ideas and shared resources in my library starting this fall!
