Michigan school librarians and teachers can now rejoice! MCLS is thrilled to announce that three of the MeL Databases online classes have received approval for SB-CEUs for K12 staff! This is important for classroom teachers and media specialists who want to share the great resources of MeL with their students.
The three approved webinars, which are provided free-of-charge to Michigan library or school staff, are MeL Databases for Kids (aimed at elementary through middle school), MeL Resources for Young Adults Part 1, and MeL Resources for Young Adults Part 2 (both aimed at middle school through high school). The three online classes can be taken in any order. The only prerequisite is basic Internet navigation skills.
