[LM_NET] November Weed of the Month

[Donna Baumbach <baumbach@MAIL.UCF.EDU>]

Greetings, fellow LM_NETters,

The SUNLINK Weed of the Month topic for November  is "Photography."

Remember that camera you were using for family photos ten years ago? 
Compare that to the digital camera you are using today. Big change, 
right? If your library media collection titles on photography have not 
changed in the last ten or twenty years, the students are not getting 
what they need to maintain an interest and answer their questions in 
this subject area. .

For information on criteria, a rationale, suggested titles to consider 
for weeding, and titles to consider for purchase, go to this section of 
the SUNLINK web site:

A brief explanation of Weed of the Month for new LM_NET members: The 
SUNLINK Weed of the Month began in September 1997, as an effort to help 
provide Florida's School Library Media Specialists with guidelines and 
suggestions for weeding their collections a little at a time as well as 
adding quality materials. The project idea and specific suggestions came 
from media specialists around the world via LM_NET.  A section of a 
school library media collection is identified each month during the 
school year  as a weeding target.
