It's a wrap folks!

First of all I would like to thank Jane Healy and Julie Erickson for putting together a fabulous set of discovery lessons for all of us to plow through!  Great job ladies!

I think the most fun I had was with CAMIO, which I freely admit I had never used before and probably wouldn't have used if it wasn't for this challenge.  I don't know how often I will use it in the future, just because I don't usually have to find the kinds of things it offers, but I like knowing it's there.

Since, I work for the State Library it's kinda my job to help promote our resources.  :)  Now that I know so much more about them I will be able to chat them up much better when doing site visits and even when I'm at the reference desk (not that anyone usually comes in on my rare shifts up there).  I also hope to continually wow the rest of the DOE by whipping out my knowledge of these resources when the opportune moment presents itself. 

On a side note, just last week I had a colleague from Oklahoma send out a message over a listserv asking other State Library Children & Youth Consultants what e-resources we provided for children and teens.  She had not been keeping up with that over the last couple years and I believe was going to pursue that now.  Judging from the few responses I saw that were sent to the entire listserv, I think we have one of the best and most comprehensive collections for this age group.  So we should take great pride in that...but we shouldn't let it go to our heads!
