RILINK Newsletter

RILINK Staff is here to support school librarians and promote school libraries.

A big thank you to Sarah Probst for the February 13 session on LibGuides . If you missed it you can view the recording on our website. Please remember that RILINK has an asynchronous certificate option. After viewing the recording send a request for a Certificate of Attendance through Request Help. You will receive a survey to complete and submit. When the form is submitted, the certificate will be sent to you.

On another note, please let us know if you would like any specific professional learning experiences before the school year ends, whether that's with LibGuides or with Destiny.

What's New in Destiny Version 21.0 Release Notes describe the changes made in the most recent update. Please take time to review the notes and the videos below. Many features are not yet mandatory, but at some point, not yet specified by Follett, all schools/districts will be required to use the new features.

Resources, Strategies, and Connections

We want your input - what would you like to learn this summer? What do you need to make your library program stronger? Submit your ideas on this survey.

Take a look at the statistics across the state for RILINK's Sora users for this school year so far. Our numbers keep rising each year as students and teachers realize the potential of this resource.

It's also good to remember that magazine access is simultaneous access, so checkout data does not reflect the great number of students who open magazines regularly.

AskRI is using new logos. You can download them at their website. We have added them to our homepage under square logos for Destiny Discover and on the Learning Resources Spreadsheet.
