A step-by-step guide written specifically to introduce school
library media specialists to the Internet, addressing their
distinct needs and the unique relationships that exist between
media specialists, their students, and classroom colleagues. Steps
for incorporating the Internet into the media center program,
online resource identification, and descriptions of successful
learning activities will have immediate application in any media
center. Intended for media specialists with little or no Internet
experience, it explains clearly how to incorporate the Internet
into the media center, cites exemplary World Wide Web sites for
media specialists, and covers the following topics: how to connect
to the Internet; Internet tools and how to use them; the best ways
to browse the World Wide Web and retrieve useful information; the
basics of home page development; listservs and USENET newsgroups
for the school library media specialist; how to develop and
evaluate Internet-based instructional activities--with
illustrations of actual Internet use, and strategies for promoting
responsible student use of the Internet. Helpful appendices include
a guide for evaluating World Wide Web resources, a sample Internet
acceptable use policy, a selective subject list of World Wide Web
resources, a glossary of terms, and a bibliography of recommended
titles. MacDonald explains clearly and with Web screen
illustrations how to accomplish each step of Internet connection
and use. He describes and evaluates hardware and service provider
issues, Internet search tools and browsers, and cites exemplary
World Wide Web sites for school library media specialists. All
terms--such as Telnet, FTP, Gopher, WAIS, Netscape, HTML, and
Java--are clearly explained and their uses evaluated in terms of
the school library media center. This guide cuts through the
confusion of the Internet and provides a clear path to transforming
traditional media center services through use of the Internet and
to developing enhanced media center and classroom programs in
collaboration with teachers.
