Get the ALA Awards (Caldecott, Newbery, CSK, and more) Texted to Your Cell Phone!

HEY U.  LK @ THIS.

Check out this clever way to be the first to know about Monday’s Youth Media Awards (including the Caldecott, Newbery, Printz, CSK, Pura Belpre, and more – via cell phone!  How cool is it to get the award winners texted to your cell phone? (Oh, gosh, I really am a geeky librarian if I just wrote that …)

Michelle, who is doing her practicum with me and is a wonderful librarian in her own right, alerted me to this.  Her suggestion? Get the announcement on your cell phone and take it straight to Borders so you can be first to snap up the winners! No need to write down or print out the list — it’s right on your phone.

 

TTYL.  LYLAS.  CU @ ALA!
