I have been asked to do some presentations to our Sixth Form about Independent Learning, Study and Research Skills. These will take place soon and I will upload the presentations to SlideShare for all to see. To accompany these, I have started to use an amazing site called Glogster where you can make posters. The first one is here, the rest will be put on the Research Guides pages as I make them.

You can now search our library catalogue. Look at the left-hand column and type into the search box. You will then get a listing of our books.
LibraryThing Logo
This is powered by a site called LibraryThing, an online service to help people catalogue their books easily. Because everyone catalogues together, LibraryThing also connects people with the same books, comes up with suggestions for what to read next, and so forth. Over the coming weeks, we will look at how we can use this interesting site with reading groups in the Library.

The Dixie Grammar School
Welcome to the new Library Online website for The Dixie Grammar School. Your new Librarian, who started on the 1st September, is Mrs Anne M Robinson. I am a Chartered Librarian, really experienced in running school libraries.
I am going to use this site for a range of things:
- To track the development of the Library during its transformation over the coming years.
- To give the staff and students of the school a taste of what a Chartered Librarian can do – explore the site as it develops to find lots of help!
- To create useful advice on how to research – look at the Subject Links pages.
- To talk about books and reading – tell me what you like to read so that we can make the Library relevant to you.
