Tips for Teachers

Start your search with your school first, then scope up to the district if necessary. When you find the item you need, print out the page from SUNLINK. Take it to your school library media specialist who will request the item by interlibrary loan and let you know when it arrives.

Use the Quick Search feature in SUNLINK with keywords from the Sunshine State Standard you are teaching.

Tips for Media Specialists

Assist teachers to identify keywords in the SSS to use as search words. Show them how hotlinked subject headings in the SUNLINK record may lead to more resources. And be sure they understand format, interest level, and language search limiters.

Remind teachers that they should preview the all materials before using them for a lesson.
