TARGET: Promotion of databases

[raquel norton <raquelnorton@YAHOO.COM>]

Hello, I am currently enrolled in the MLS program at
SUNY Albany.  I am also working as a librarian in a
K-12 library.  I am having trouble promoting our
databases that we offer in the library.  Both teachers
and the students seem more interested in using the
Internet.  I have approached several teachers and
explained about new and exciting databases.  The
teachers get all excited, but once they leave they
never ask about them again.  When students come in and
research I use the databases with some, but others
will not let us help.  Does anyone have a great way of
promoting databases in the library?

Thanks,
Raquel A. Norton, Librarian
Gilbertsville- Mt. Upton Central School, NY
