Between the Covers
Connie Ogle’s mother swears she began reading books in her crib at the ripe age of 6 months. She’s been working at The Miami Herald since the Palm Beach bureau had a bar in the lobby (let’s just call it the late ‘80s) and has been The Herald’s Book Editor since 2001.

Boolify Project: An Educational Boolean Search Tool
Librarians, teachers and parents have told us how hard it is for students to understand web searching. Boolify makes it easier for students to understand their web search by illustrating the logic of their search, and by showing them how each change to their search instantly changes their results.
It's simple, immediate and easy to use with your class or in your library.
Search results are presented through Google's "Safe Search STRICT" technology. There are two important caveats: a) no filtering technology is 100% secure, as this blog posting astutely points out and 2) we are unable to control or modify the results that we provide, beyond the filtering settings available through Google.

Graphic Novels for (Really) Young Readers - 3/1/2006 - School Library Journal
Since I started stocking our school library with graphic novels six years ago, I’ve discovered that kids love them. Our collection, for students in kindergarten through fifth grade, now has around 125 graphic novels, and they’re by far our most heavily circulated items. Every year, I add about 20 to 25 new ones, and I’m convinced that the time and money I’ve invested in those titles have been my best collection development decision to date.
