Styling Librarian: Book Talk #titletalk September

I love waking up to #titletalk when everyone else is in their Sunday evenings. Fortunately, this is a 4 day weekend, so I got up early instead of sleeping in and immersed myself in great ideas for book talking this time…

Here are my big “take aways” for this #titletalk

TITLE TALK- Add in to practice:

Student of the week book talks! 

What am I reading small poster: have laminated sign and write in books read recently!

Note to self, must add what I’m reading to email signature as well, even if it changes almost daily…

Wallwisher – @meg_allison shared a Wallwisher that collected posts of books people are presently reading (last question at 5 minutes left of Book Talk- what are you reading?) Great tool for teachers as well…

Final note: How I love Tweetchat for keeping up with all the twitter posts, overwhelming otherwise… who am I kidding, it is always overwhelming to watch a Tweetchat in progress, but worth every treasure shared!
