[LM_NET] Data and Dessert Library Program Gets Press Attention

[gary price <gary@RESOURCESHELF.COM>]

Greetings from DC.
I just posted the following item on ResourceShelf.com and thought it
was more than deserving of a post on the list.

It's always exciting to read positive press about librarians and
library services. (-:

Libraries launch online databases at Data & Dessert

For your great idea folder. We first learned about the Data & Dessert
program (going on at schools throughout Washington, Oregon, and
elsewhere) during the Internet@Schools West conference last
November.

This is one wonderful idea to get students and their
parents/guardians excited about the wonderful resources (including
the librarians themselves) that their school and public library
offer.

From the article, "Tuesday evening's library event, Data & Dessert,
brought 65 people to Linus Pauling Middle School to learn about
online databases offered through the Corvallis School District's
library system and the Corvallis-Benton County Library system."
