SUNLINK Links for Media Specialists
This is a Florida School Librarians' resource site. Some items are specific to those in Florida but most are applicable to those of us in other areas.

I was first introduced to SUNLINK through their Weed of the Month link. http://www.sunlink.ucf.edu/weed/ An area is selected for weeding each month and pertinent details are covered. Specific titles to toss and replacement recommendations make it a wonderful resource for keeping
our collections up-to-date. It's far less overwhelming than tackling the whole library at once!
