| Topics: | information, computers, library |
| Description: | The Wheaton Public Library has a lot of great things to offer. So, we thought, why not share some of this with our community (and anyone else interested)? The focus here is on the tools you can use to find information. That is, information on anything, such as books to read, companies to invest in, medical conditions, car repair, genealogy, even your library account. We’ll describe new functions of the online catalog, new features in patron accounts, new online databases, Internet sites of interest, computer class questions, etc. We’ll even talk about the most basic info tools - interesting reference books in the collection. Feel free to comment or ask a question and join in the discussion! |

Staying Safe Online

The teams are coached by school librarians, teachers, or parent volunteers. These teams come to the library and engage in a game show style Battle of the Books. Each year the library chooses 20 titles from classic and current YA literature to use for YABOB. This is the second year I have the privilege of being the score-keeper for YABOB Battles. Week after week, I am consistently amazed by how prepared the participants are. I have trouble remembering specific details from the
