Media Specialists Matter
Connie's Podcast: Download file
During April, I had the opportunity to interview Connie Van Blarcum, media specialist at Jefferson High School in Bloomington, MN. During our conversation she commented on how she communicates with students and staff, partnerships she has developed, how she uses MINITEX Reference Services and other wonderful programs she has initiated at her school. One thing that Connie brought up was on how libraries need a prompt turn-around time; it is how we will stay in existence in the age of Google.
We encourage every librarian to be the “voice” behind a MINITEX podcast and share your expertise and experiences with the greater community. Podcasts are featured on the MINITEX Reference Services blog under the category “On the Road with MINITEX.” If interested in participating in a podcast or you know someone who would be great to interview, please contact me.
