Websites worth knowing about

I have stumbled upon a few more websites that are worth knowing about if you are involved with Young Adult library services.

The first is a Wiki called Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki. This is a Wiki site (which means that any viewer can edit it, like Wikipedia) which is dedicated toward successful library practices. It also has sections which are particularly applicable to teen librarians such as a gaming section, a Programing for Young Adults section, and much more. Check it out at http://www.libsuccess.org/index.php?title=Main_Page

The next is the website for Free Comic Book Day 2006. This day is just what it sounds like. It is a day where people can go to their local comic book store and receive a free comic book. The point of this is to encourage comic readership and introduce none comic readers to the art form. Check out the site for more info and a list of comics that will be offered. http://www.freecomicbookday.com/

The last link for now is a blog called The Shifted Librarian. This is a great blog dealing with technology and libraries. The most current post talks about videogaming in libraries and mentions the Gaming wiki I mentioned earlier. If you are interested in finding new ways to integrate technology into your library you should check this blog out. http://www.theshiftedlibrarian.com/.

There are plenty of other good sites which I will try to keep you up on but this is a good start. Check them out and let me know what you think. Definitely comment and tell me if you know of other sites or resources I should be aware of.
