[LM_NET] Home schoolers; Destiny

["Ciluffo, Denise" <DCiluffo@STATENISLANDACADEMY.ORG>]

Hi all

1.   Last week someone asked if we open our libraries to homeschoolers.
I work in a private school, and we would like to be able to offer this
service to homeschoolers in our area.  Can anyone tell me how I find out
who the homeschoolers are in my area?  Would I contact the local board
of education or the state?  Any other ideas of how I can identify the
homeschool families?

2.  Also last week someone mentioned converting to Destiny.  It is our
destiny to convert too, as we learned yesterday that Spectrum and
Winnebago have been acquired by Follett.   Please let me know your
thoughts on Destiny.  

TIA -- this is my first post -- I appreciate all I've gleaned from the
wisdom of the regular contributors.
