Description

For school librarians, technology is an essential component of their work. To meet the growing need in this area, Odin Jurkowski first wrote Technology and the School Library in 2006. To address the technological advancements, Jurkowski provides an overview of the types of technologies used in school libraries, from traditional low-tech options to the latest developments, describing how the school librarian interacts with and works with the technology.

Updated throughout, this 4th edition addresses the continuously changing nature of technology, including Chromebooks, augmented reality, virtual reality, and generative AI. Major topics covered in this volume include information resources in the school library, the different varieties of educational software available, resources available via the web, and what to include on a school library website. This book also addresses tools that can be used in classrooms and technology administration: everything from automation and filters to student safety and security systems.
