11:45-12:00 Library Resource Management System
One of the big SLS initiatives over the summer was setting up a system to organize and make available all the information related to the library media resources purchased by our schools. This system will provide us with contact information for our school librarians, access information about the library resources purchased by their schools, and contact information for the school librarians. This system will also be used to compile the requested resources for 2018-2019.

New this year for the Elementary Schools, SLS purchased several new databases from FactCite: Biography for Beginners, Mythology, American History, and Science.
