As well as promoting the Kids' Lit Quiz, Julia also gave a thoroughly researched presentation on "why school libraries need blogs" which provided a strong rationale for having a go at this wonderful web 2.0 tool...
Julia recently started Kerikeri High School Library's book chat blog Cover to cover and is having a great time with it - while not underestimating how much time it takes, she is very enthusiastic about the format and the potential. It is fairly early days for getting lots of participation from others but it is growing all the time...
Julia has kindly shared the great powerpoint she created - here is the link
Here is a guide on the National Library website about creating a school library blog or wiki.
If you would like any support in creating or managing a school library blog, there are people to help, eg at National Library.
If you haven't already, check out the Create Readers blog on the National Library schools website, and Jeannie's LibraryZest
