GOAL 3: NAvigatING INFORMATION

​Navigate, curate and create information across the spectrum of human records
Outcome 3B: Utilize resources or tools to manage information

​In LIS 724 Integrating Technology into Programming, we examined various curation sites, compiled data on a topic of our choice, and wrote a reflection on the process.  The sites I chose were: Pinterest, Listly, and Pearltrees.  I think that it is essential for librarians to familiarize themselves with curation tools because they can extend the information learned in a library program, including as an additional resource for reference or reader’s advisory.  Some school districts do not have a school librarian, so public librarians can be an asset to local schools by gathering and vetting information in an accessible way through the implementation of a curation site.  

I have utilized curation sites such as Pinterest to help me plan for my storytimes and special programs.  I have also created Pinterest boards to use as part of a program.  For the August 2018 meeting of my Book and Cookie Club, I created a Pinterest board with some knot tying tutorials for one of the book-related activities. In the spring of 2018, I created a Listly for a patron that wanted multicultural materials for her preschool class.  Curation tools are a great resource for librarians and patrons.
