Bereavement Electronic Information Sources

Good Evening,

There are information sources available electronically for persons dealing with grief. I had a family dealing with the loss of relatives of various forms of cancer. They needed some information about how they could get some bereavement support to assist them in dealing with their grief. I wanted to share this with you just in case you might need this type of support.

Peace!

An interesting electronic library

Good Evening All,
I came across this web-site in which the designers make the claim that they have carefully reviewed their resources, including the top 5% in educational resources for this site. Check it out, and tell me what you think.
Enjoy! -Leslie

Librarians in the Movies

Hi There!

I found a very interesting website that talks about Librarians in the movies. This is a wonderful site to make up some really good trivia game questions or to see how Librarianship is marketed to the general public.

Enjoy!
