Re: [LM_NET] K-12 Perception of libraries/librarians

[Darla Grediagin <dgrediagin@BSSD.ORG>]

Hi all,

Another way to toot our own horn is let people that you are helping know 
that you would like to get credit.  I have just finished a university 
student who is taking a children's literature class.  I let her know 
that I would appreciate it if she were to let her instructor and fellow 
students know that she got help at the school library.
