Library and Information Week May 19th-25th
from the ALIA website
In May every year, libraries and information services throughout Australia showcase their many and varied resources and services through different programs and events targeted to a cross-section of the community. The week provides the opportunity to introduce new services and professional skills to the community, and to publicly canvas issues of importance to the provision of library and information services in Australia.
Features of the week include:
National Library Technicians Day [Tuesday 20th]
National Simultaneous Storytime [Wednesday 21st] and
The Biggest Morning Tea@Your Library [Thursday 22nd]. yellowcupetchshadow.jpg

Schools are invited to showcase their celebrations by submitting photos of their displays and Library Week events to cmiseval@det.wa.edu.au.nospam. (please remove ‘.nospam’ from address before sending).

Teachers are advised to familiarize themselves with the current Department of Education and Training Western Australia Students Online policy [March 2008] before considering publishing photographs or video of students. More information about Managing Student Safety Online is available on the CMIS Evaluation Website.
