It's National School Library Month, a perfect time to expand your Personal Learning Network, or PLN.
My PLN has grown significantly over the last few years, and I am truly grateful for all of the fantasitc ideas, resources, suggestions, and advice. Your PLN can be anything from blogs you follow, to Twitter accounts of other TL/MS, to following Twitter chats, to facebook pages, to Instagram pages and more. Below are some of the best sources of info I have found to help me grow as a School Library Media Specialist. Perhaps you will find something helpful, too. =)

Cybraryman has created a list of educational hashtags that you might find helpful. You can find that list HERE.
There are tons of twitter chats going on nightly/weekly/monthly. They usually last about an hour and go by surprisingly fast. Pick one that tickles your fancy and check it out. If you like what you see, jump in the conversation. If the pace of a twitter chat seems too fast, don't despair. Some Twitter chats are archived so you can always go back to look at something you might have missed. If you're not sure what a Twitter chat is or how to take part in one, you can check out THIS helpful info compiled by Cybraryman. Cybraryman has also created a neat little page that lists the current day's Twitter chat and what time they take place. You can find it HERE. Another great resource to check out is the TL Virtual Cafe.
