Speaker's Notes

As a librarian, I am often the first person to bring attention to new trends and technologies in my building. I have a unique situation, where there are six high schools in one building that share the library. That means six principals, around 18 assistant principals, nearly 200 teachers and nearly 3,000 students and one librarian. Undertaking and big shift in school culture is a huge responsibility, especially for me, as the only librarian in the building. Each Tuesday morning, all six principals meet together and I created this presentation as if I were in that meeting, pitching this idea to them, keeping in mind that MHSHS is one of my six schools. They want me to be as brief and concise as possible, with them having to do as little extra work as possible. The speaker's notes are in the presentation, but I thought it would be easier to link them separately, just in case they didn't show up in the presentation. These notes are what I thought I would say as I went through the presentation.

I hope to give this presentation at some point in the future to my principals. Even if it does not happen, I really have planned to work with the teacher I mention, Ms. Moore, who is really excited about what a digital textbook could mean for her teaching. She has given me her outline for the year and that is what I have been using when I am doing my example searches, as well as working towards my final project.
