Update: What we "library"

For School Library Month, I invited students to use "library" as a verb.  I previously posted a picture of their responses hanging on my bulletin board.  The bulletin board has since come down (see next post), but I've captured their responses in a Wordle, below (click to view it full size and HQ).

I love, love, love the words they chose to capture their library experience!

What do you library?

For School Library Month, we are turning library into a verb at my school.  From a sign in the library display case:

We "google" answers to questions, we "friend" people online, we can "text" and "message" our friends.  It's time to "library" our homework, research, reading, computers, quiet time, and study groups.  What do you library?

Student answers are being collected on catalog cards, and posted in the display case.  So far, answers range from, "chillin'" and "escape" to "research," "all of my homework," "better grades," and "the world."  I plan to collect the answers at the end of the month and post a word cloud on my library's web page.

So, what do YOU library?

Happy School Library Month!
