This module is part of the Foundations of School Librarianship on using web resources to enhance learning and build collections. It describes a process by which the school librarian and teacher will collaborate on a high school-level project to explore how researchers are using social media to promote and distribute their research findings. This presents a great opportunity for science teachers and school librarians to tap into high school students' enthusiasm for social media in a constructive and educational way. It also provides opportunities for school librarians to collaborate with teachers on developing or enhancing students information evaluation skills. And finally, the days of speaking of collection development as a library activity that means adding physical volumes to the collection may be over. Rather, we speak of developing access to quality resources that enhance learning. Social media sites that provide free access to quality research data supports the concept of promoting Open Educational Resources (OERs).
