April is School Library Month, a time to celebrate librarians' vital role in fostering a love of reading and instilling digital, information, and media literacy skills in students to help them become literate and successful citizens. To celebrate, read about Ohio School Librarians participating in INFOhio user groups—ICoach and Users Council—doing amazing work with INFOhio resources.

Advocating for your library has never been more important. Through numbers you can share the value of your school library, sending a powerful message to your audience.

Celebrate School Library Month with INFOhio's BLUEcloud Course Lists, a resource list management tool providing students access to high-quality materials both online and in the school library. 

BLUEcloud Suite supports school libraries that use INFOhio's Library Services Platform with a clean, modern, web-based interface. Share and Experience BLUEcloud with this flyer.

Make your data speak

Numbers in a vacuum are rarely impressive. Now that you’ve got some organized data, there are lots of free applications that let you get really jazzy with your numbers. What should you do? Use your data to tell your story.
