The American Library Association's (ALA) Digital Literacy Taskforce is calling on all libraries to put a social media megaphone to their activities planned for Digital Learning Day, February 1. Raise awareness of your library's work in this arena by tweeting (hashtag #DLDay), blogging, and sharing Flickr photos and YouTube videos of digital literacy activities and testimonials throughout the day. You can also share examples on the showcase page of the Digital Learning Day website.
“Libraries are essential partners in digital learning and digital literacy,” said taskforce Chair Michael Borges. “Digital Learning Day is a great opportunity to gather examples to illustrate our work so that we may more effectively advocate and highlight current practices to stakeholders.”
AASL and YALSA are serving as core partners. A toolkit is available from the Alliance for Excellent Education.
