[LM_NET] School-Libraries.Net February report

[Raymond Barber <rwbarber@GMAIL.COM>]

February was a banner month for School-Libraries.Net.  97 new entries
were added to the database. Check out the new libraries added

member of the community.

We also added one new country, Bulgaria. We have begun a project of
enhancing the data for each state and country.  The first to be
finished is Alabama.  Thanks to Dr. Ginger Eastman at the Alabama
Department of Education, the Alabama SLN coordinator, all the links
were checked and dead links replaced or eliminated, with a number of
new schools added. Several new sections were added or significantly
enhanced: Books and Book Resources, Curriculum Related Resources,
Professional Associations, Educational  Opportunities, and Employment
Opportunities.   Take a look.

Last month, thanks to a vigilant librarian, we discovered that almost
all the Rhode Island links were dead.  That has been corrected and a
number of new libraries added.

Please continue to let us know about dead links by using our new form.

In February we added two new state coordinators to  assisit us.
Kristena Rudloff the Library Media Assistant at The Stillwater High
School Library, is our Oklahoma Coordinator and Bridget Schuamann,
Library/Careers Advisor, Kings High School, South Dunedin, New
Zealand.  Thanks to both for volunteering and for pitching right in
checking links and sending us new schools.  We could not do it without
you.
We still need coordinators in most states. You can find a list of
state coordinators at
