We've been hearing rumors but it's official - the Florida Electronic Library to Replace Search Engine. The Florida Electronic Library will replace the current search engine with Cengage-Gale's PowerSearch platform. I think we're all going to love the change.
Couldn't go to Computers in Libraries (CIL) but want to know what's going on? They have their own army of bloggers. Check out the Official ITI Conference Blog.
Members keep asking about how to use social networking in their libraries. Check out Meredith Farkas' blog post - Libraries in Social Networking Software. She's got interesting ideas on how social software can be used by libraries (with lots of examples).
And there was an interesting article in THE Journal on Selling Social Media to Your Team.
Thanks to a recent generous contribution from a Florida donor, The Libri Foundation has a number of April 2008 BOOKS FOR CHILDREN grants available specifically for rural Florida public libraries. Applications are being accepted from rural public libraries that have never received a Books for Children grant, as well as from libraries that received grants in 2005 or earlier. The application deadline for these grants is: (postmarked by) April 15th. Grants will be awarded at the end of April.
