What should we have as our 3 pages? Based on the Rubric and Assignment directions, my thoughts are as follows: *Library and Librarian Information (Elementary level and then a name for our librarian - Kate Frost??). This could also include the librarian's philosophy and education) *Brainstorming for Marketing Tool  *Elevator Speech  *Marketing Tool  OR we could also use the suggested pages such as Homepage, Course Content, and Personal Content.
 * Page Ideas**

For the @your library® logo, I was thinking perhaps "Expand Your Mind @your library®" or "Learn4Life @your library®".
 * Logo Ideas**
 * Tamra, Wiki is back up and wanted to write to you before leaving the library.... Love your ideas: **
 * I agree w/the elementary perspective as that is all I can relate to... I will have to look up "Kate Frost" **
 * or is this someone you made up????? Wasn't sure.... **
 * I also like the 3 page titles you made, and would be happy to add them, but oh my stars, I am so not tech savvvy and am trying to figure my own Wiki out as we speak... I think your style makes it more interesting to read rather than the normal titles. Also, I like the "Expand Your Mind" Logo rather than the other... it's different from the sample given.... Let's see what Lisa thinks??? **
 * Take Care!! sal **
 * I made up Kate Frost by using names of two authors. I think we can just make up a name. :) That's the impression I got from the sample wikis, anyway. I don't mind adding the pages if Lisa is alright with those. And I took it from the directions that we were to set up a wiki just for this project, that's why I did it. But I guess not. Oh well. :) - T **


 * I'm fine with the titles for the logo: I like both, but I think "Learn4Life@your library(where do you get the R?) sounds too much like a fundraiser for cancer....Let's go with "Expand Your Mind." I've just arrived in Austin (yesterday) and I am going to work on my classes all weekend while everyone else in Austin attends ACL. :-) I've recently learned how to manage and set up my own wiki - it's not as difficult as I'd expected. Anyway, if you need to contact me my telephone # is (512-264-5420). Will be in touch! Lisa **

**So for the logo, we'll go with the consensus on "ExpandYourMind@your library®". I get the ® by doing option + R. Not sure if the same shortcut works on PC or not. Also, I can get the pages set up sometime this weekend if we want to go with the ones we suggested. I'd feel better if we at least get those set up, determine our librarian's name, and start on his/her background. - T**
 * I'm not going to spend as much time at ACL as I originally thought. I also have report cards coming up due on Wednesday and forms to fill out for upcoming Fall Parent Conferences in addition to working on 3 projects. :( I'm going to partake of what I can this evening and tomorrow and probably not go on Sunday. Hope you get settled back in alright! **


 * Sounds like a plan, and Kate Frost is good!!!! (I thought the names sounded familar) and I too was under the impression that the name could be fictional. Let me know what I can do to help. Again, learning about WIKI's but can do some background work if needed. Take Care!!! **
