Thing 17. ELM Productivity Tools

I am very well versed and I use and reccommend to patrons how to use the databases in ELM. I worked in the public school for 31 yrs as a media person and I was thrilled when databases came online. We could finally spend our money on other things than reference books and magazines.

I taught classes to new teachers in the three school districts I worked. Some of the new faculty had used the databases in college and many did not even know they exisited and how to effectively use with their students. I also taught the students how to get good results with these databases.

I enjoyed looking at some of the databases I had not used in awhile. Great refresher course.
