Re: WWW Home Page for Library MediaSpecialists

Dear Linda,
   Our library prepares web pages with resources to support student
projects. We have pages on China, Africa, and Latin America, at the moment.
We link these to our library home page so that students can easily access
sites we have evaluated and listed for their use, from school or from home.
We consider this activity materials selection, just as we select books and
periodicals. If you'd like to take a look, see http://www.tiac.net/users/winlib/
