Presenter: Jason Puckett of Georgia State University is the author of the new book Modern Pathfinders: Creating Better Research Guides from ACRL Publications.
Ideas for School Libraries
The document provides recommendations for shelving and displays in various school libraries, including 3-tier shelving, slotted divider shelves for picture books, roll-away mobile shelving, face-out shelving with flat bottom shelves, 2-tier and browser bins shelving to make use of different spaces, and window seats and exterior displays.
Using Your School Library Website in Instruction
This document provides guidance on creating an effective library website for instruction. It recommends having clear goals such as promoting the library and helping students learn.

Finding the There There: theory and praxis of location-aware systems design
I first gave this talk at the Pitney Bowes Innovation Day 2013. The goals for the presentation were to 1) use theories of context and embodied interaction to examine the ways our conceptions of space and place have evolved, 2) illustrate new complexities of location-aware mobile design, and 3) suggest some new theoretical frameworks for thinking about designing location-aware systems.
The Role of School in Promoting Early Literacy
The school plays an important role in promoting early literacy. It must take home literacy as the basis for instruction and collaborate with parents to understand each learner's needs. The school should recognize that every child is an individual emerging reader and writer. It must provide meaningful literacy activities and create a literacy-rich environment with guided and free play. Promoting early literacy requires collaboration between parents, teachers, and the active participation of young learners.
