  4. Creating Linking Tools Why should students spend most of their time locating library resources when they could use the additional time reading, evaluating, and synthesizing the information needed to complete assignment/project? Time is a precious commodity. There is little to no time available for faculty and librarians to continuously hunt for directions on how to link the resources. The directions for creating linking tools were compiled into a web page and made available from a single location. Now the tools could be used to make it easier to find information.

  5. Publicizing Linking Tools &Faculty Development Workshop Creating a professional development workshop for faculty was not easy. Publicizing and getting attendance was even harder. Began publicizing linking tools for others to use Attendees at GERA Conference asked for GALILEO workshop at local high school for teachers and media specialists. One workshop became three.
