15. What I have learned on my 1:1 Journey

16. We are NO longer “The Keeper of the Books”!

17. Circulation will change Expect more circulation of ebooks, especially for nonfiction.

18. If the students won’t come to the library, the library will go to the students!

19. Fewer teachers and students come into the library space for research and may leave out the librarian completely Collaboration is essential. Find out what skills are being taught and take resources to the classroom or offer to Co-Teach a lesson.

20. Budgets stayed the same even though digital resources such as eBooks are more expensive. Plan for additional cost What can you do to generate extra funds? Consider purchase cost vs. subscriptions

21. A larger collection of eBooks brings on other challenges such as book promotion and instruction for check out. Promotion is key in a new digital environment

22. The library website will be used more often to access material. Make sure it is up to date.

23. Become experts with the technology used by students and know how to connect it to the curriculum
