Lisa S. Claymont Library Year End Review
Future Ready Librarians This past summer at the ISTE and ALA annual conferences, Future Ready Schools announced a new framework for Future Ready Librarians. Led by Bill Bass and continuing the work started by Dr. Marty's commitment to Parkway Schools becoming Future Ready, the Parkway librarians' professional development for the past year has focused on how to apply this initiative to drive the direction of our libraries. In this annual year-end report, I will focus specifically on how I used Future Ready Librarians initiatives during our most recent year in the Claymont library. Additionally, information will be included from my Year 3 Student Surveydetails from my time spent on Parkway's Library Program Evaluation Teamhow I am including Parkway Cares in our library program We have continued to grow the use of our makerspace as a collaborative space. Another way we have built community in our library is by adding puzzles and a chess board. "I was really creative. Julie Boatner

Advocate for your school library program with an annual report.
As school libraries are winding down at the end of the school year, collecting overdue books, weeding old equipment, and getting ready to shutter the doors for the summer, this is the perfect time for school librarians to think about drafting an annual report. Even though we are busy with end-of-year tasks, the time is ripe to reflect on the year as a whole and think strategically about next year. First, let’s start with why… Annual reports are a great reflection tool that help school librarians think critically on their practice, celebrate accomplishments, and plan ahead. They are also are an excellent way to advocate with stakeholders and advocate for more support or funding. Administrators like to see data, so take this opportunity to gather some figures, especially if you are asking for more funding. What should be in an annual report? There is no template per se, but you should tailor your annual report to meet your school’s needs. Some suggestions: Share, share, share! Like this:
10 Great Web Font Combinations | Stepto & Son Graphic Design and Website Development Agency
We take the pain out of font matching by selecting 10 great web font combinations that will always work well together. Choosing a typeface for your website is not always an easy task, and fixing on a successful pairing can be a particularly arduous task. One general rule of thumb when combining fonts is to use a serif and a sans serif together, to create contrast. Here we look at 10 great web font combinations that never fail to fit; the way they have been combined is based on using two complementing typefaces – one for the heading and one for the body copy – with both being interchangeable. For this reason, we would recommend that you experiment with different sizes, weights, leading and so forth to get the most from your chosen typefaces. Georgia & VerdanaFor those who stick to web standards, this combination is always going to be a winner. Please copy and paste the code above. Below you can find three examples of great typographical brand identities.

The Absolutely True Adventures of a School Librarian
While surfing social media sites I come across great posts with equally insightful comments. Unfortunately, trying to locate these posts in the stream months later is often an impossible task. Thus, in lieu of waiting for the original poster to blog their thoughts, I am starting a series here entitled "Shared On Social Media" so that I can find the information I found useful later. Posted to the Future Ready Librarians Facebook Group on June 9, 2017 by Brad Malone. As a LMS turned administrator, I have spent a lot of time looking at all of your end reports and wondering what I would think or feel if I received one from any of the LMS I oversee. Who is the audience? As is so often the case, when I'm struggling with a LMS issue I turn to Doug Johnson. I hope no one finds this insulting.
