Project LIBS Fellows Support Network

Creating a space where our group can share information, experiences, Q & A's, discussions, and R&R (reading and relaxation). I invite the 2008 UNT fellows from Project LIBS to join this social network as part of my leadership project for 5000.

Flip Book : ReadWriteThink

Animoto

Animoto has limited controls for a student who wants to tell his story but it is a lot of fun to use with photos/text/music. There are educational terms available.

UNT Reminders and Wall of Information

Click links below:

SLIS Online forms (Advising memo)

Professional Development Hours from Graduate Classes for HISD
According to Ms. Laws, who confirmed this info with her supervisor Sharon Koonce in the Dept. of Professional Development, every 3 hours of graduate course will be credited for 45 professional development hours for PDAS. So it would mean 1 graduate credit= 15 PD hours. So we earned 60 hours from 5200, and rightly so! Cynthia Ramos

Mentor Reminders:
Don't forget to have your mentors sign off your UNT check-off list.
Also, they are GREAT resources for your library operations set up. CALL THEM.
