I have selected a list of online resources to benefit any library, but especially my library. My list is compiled of resources that include library standards, children's book awards, tips for new librarians, online resources, electronic resources for students, and online resources for teachers. These are all sites that I know I will need to reference during my first year as a librarian.
If you have any other helpful sites, please add them to my list!
