Thing 22 Nings

I checked out the Texas School Librarian Ning. This was a great forum for many things. One interesting question that got a lot of replies, was What is the most frustrating thing about being a librarian? This is a great forum for discussing and venting problems that may be unique to Texas librarians. Users can sign up and create their own member page and comment on others blogs or in the forums. Users can also share instructional or book review videos with each other. Photos can be shared also. Groups can be formed that are specific such as the group of Middle School Librarians. I am going to pass this Ning on to my librarian friends. There is power in numbers and we need to stick together especially when Texas librarians face so many obstacles with lack of funding, raising the bar on education for librarians when the job is not very secure, and as stated earlier, lack of job security.
