Curating Librarian

Curation – Newspaper style

Curating can be time consuming what with scanning social media, websites, and emails. What do you do? Toss every link into Google Keep or save to Facebook? I find that I always “forget” about those links. I need a way to organize my ideas – #thehomeedit way! (Never heard of the The Home Edit ladies – just binge watch on Netflix.)

If you select an app, you have several to “play with” to see what works for you. Paper.li used to have a free version but now is strictly a professional platform. When I retired, I made the decision to try it for a year. With tweaking on the 25 allocated sources, I’ve managed a curated set of links that match up with school librarians’ ideas and resources. Now to make a choice to keep Paper.li or figure out another free way to accomplish the same newsletter.
