Bibliotech Update
Bibliotech, the world's only all digital library has partnered with Wood Middle School Library. We received 10 Nook HDs to check out to students as part of this partnership. Students can use their own device to use all the fantastic services of Bibliotech. Click here to check it out.
Technology Update
The library will be checking out some of these devices to students. A signed permission form (available in the library) is needed in order for students to check a device out. Devices are checked out for 2 weeks. Here is an overview of the devices that will be available for checkout:
Nook HD (from Bibliotech) - There are 10 available. Students will be able to check out books from Bibliotech library (they do not need their own bibliotech library card) as well as use Mango Languages (to use Mango, they must have a bibliotech account). *Bibliotech library is like the public library in the library collection*
Nook Simple Touch- There are 4 available. Each Simple Touch is preloaded with about 20 books each. Students cannot add any books on these devices.
Nexus Tablets - 10-15 tablets available. Students will be able to check out Overdrive books ONLY on these tablets.
Think Tank News
The next Think Tank is Tuesday, November 11th after school. Bring an old t-shirt that is okay to cut up. We will be transforming the t-shirt into a bag.
