Linda, you included some good background information and some very good tips. I like the idea of the media center's webpage being seen not only as the information center for students, but as an "advertisement agency" for parents as well. I would like to have an active webpage for my students and parents. However, I feel that it would be under utilized. The school culture is not ideal and the main focus is rigorous and direct instruction because of test score scrutiny. But even aside from that, I find that the students are more interested in internet gossip than actual research that would benefit them academically.
