Found on SLJ's ExtraHelping - Preview a picture book before you buy it at Lookybook. Lookybook.com bills itself as "the world's longest bookshelf" and a "test track" for picture books—all for free. Before buying or committing to a picture book, parents, teachers, and librarians can view the work in its entirety using the site's whimsical "page-turning" tool. It's a lot of fun too!

2 New Selection Tools Online
Today I received a new email newsletter entitled: Quick Tips from Book Links. If you haven't seen it, you can go to: http://link.ixs1.net/s/ve?eli=k160219&si=e182487167&cfc=3html to view it and sign up to receive future issues. In the newsletter, I found reference to the new ALSC blog from ALA. I haven't seen this before.
The Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), a division of the American Library Association (ALA), has launched an ALSC blog at http://www.alsc. ala.org/blog. The blog provides a venue for coverage and interactive discussion of time sensitive news in children’s librarianship, current issues in the field, programs, conferences, initiatives, resources and activities of interest to ALSC members and those interested in children’s librarianship. I found a great comment about displays that you can read in total on a post for Dec. 7, 2007 at http://www.alsc.ala.org/blog/?p=139#comments: "I have to admit to putting books on display in libraries that I don’t even work in. Kinda like committing random acts of kindness – I commit random acts of display." Have you tried this?
