Library Websites
After reviewing many school library websites, I chose to
share the following:
The first website contains a multitude of useful links and an
incredible amount of information. It is possibly the most comprehensive
elementary school library website that I have ever seen. This is a terrific resource for anyone that
is just beginning to create a library website or for anyone that is wanting ideas to update or
enhance their current website. Possibly due in part to its extensiveness, it
does look like it would take some practice for younger students to learn to
navigate. The very small tabs would not be
conducive to independent use by early elementary age children.
The second website does not include everything that we have
learned should be included in a school library website; however, I loved the
idea of having a page for students that resembles the WWES home page. Even
first grade students would be able to independently locate and use a web page
with this type of design.
After looking at the website creation tools, I have chosen
to use Weebly. Based on comments that I’ve
read, this could possibly be the easiest site for beginners such as myself. Well, here I go….off to begin designing my
first website.
