‘We find stuff’ for Australian Library and Information Week, 23-29 May 2011
The aim of LIW is to raise the profile of libraries and information service professionals in Australia, so check out the myriad of ideas on the ALIA website and take time this week to tell your teachers, students, parents and community what school libraries do!
We catalogue stuff!
We look up stuff!
We research stuff!
We know stuff!
National Simultaneous Storytime
NSS is one of the highlights of the week for school libraries.
At 11am on Wednesday 25 May 2011 everyone stops to read Rod Clement’s colourful, creative story Feathers for Phoebe [SCIS No 1487992].
Register your storytime to join in the fun and add your site to the national map.
e-book versions
PowerPoint, PDF and podcast versions of Feathers for Phoebe plus interactive whiteboard activities are available to registered participating sites.
