I wasn't aware that there was such a thing as "ibrary cards". I am going to get one myself and learn about them. I like the idea of inviting a local librarian into my classroom to speak, and to "to sign up students for ibrary cards, talk about pubic library resources, and/or role play ways to approach a librarian and ask for help." What a great idea for the launching of my research project 3rd qtr. I also like the idea of adding a library link to my Teacher Web Page for easy student access to reliable resources.
I hope the MNLInk will be helpful to students in trying to access more resources and information for their project via online sources.
My frustrations with the libraries in my area are the short hours that they are open. I have gone to different libraries near my house several times over the last year and found them closed. I hope to see some more money going into our libraries in order to increase their hours of operation, especially more late night and wkend hrs for those who can't go during the day.
I want to find out which libraries have the biggest supply of French childrens books and was not successful in searching this information on MNLink. I have heard that the public library in Edina serves the French immersion school there and has a lot of titles, but I will have to contact them directly.
I have not used MNLink before but assume it will be helpful when I am searching for specific information /info on a specific topic.
Its always great to learn one more reliable resource outside of a regular "Google search".

FYI: We'll be having a representative of Hennepin County Library at the December meeting, so you may be able to talk to her about the possibility of someone visiting you classroom.
