[Katie Anderson]

Hello!  I just stumbled across the English Companion ning (http://englishcompanion.ning.com/groups?page=1).  It looks like it has real potential for connecting with other librarians and teachers about literacy.  There are several groups specifically about books (adolescent literature, native american literature, latino/a literature, etc)  There are also on several topics pertinent to libraries, primarily the group specifically for librarians!  There is also an early literacy and beginning reading group and one on literacy studies, research, and reports.  

This may be a great way to learn about new books or more about old books, to learn new ideas for connecting kids and teens to literature, to ask for advice, and to share advice.
