Library Technology Week 2014

March 10-14 is Library Technology Week (LTW) that celebrates library digital collections and services. Librarians modify their services and create new deliveries of information.

At WBAIS, we have a rich collection of databases that our students use to find academic articles for their research projects. We offer audio- and e-books that enrich our print collection.


 Do It Yourself @ Your Library


The motto "Do It Yourself @ Your Library" encourages creativity and recognizes it as a highest level of learning objectives.

How can you participate?
  • Create an avatar or a digital story about your library or school event with one of the digital resources. Submit your product to LTW Evaluation Committee to  win a coupon to cafeteria (send the link or the picture to mbrodsky@wbais.net). FYI: Free Avatar Makers
  • Share a sentence about your favorite technology: an audio book or e-book you've recently read or listened, a gadget, App, database, other technology. You can record it, choose in the poll, or stop by and tell your librarians in the library.
  • Find a QR code hidden in the library. Use your iPhone and QR Reader application to read the codes in the library - click here to choose one that best suits your device.
  • Recommend a book to your friends via Library Catalog (log in with your PowerSchool credentials)
  • Read book recommendations
  • Join us in the library during lunch time to see the Robot created by the Robotics crew in action.
