__Nook Club Book Club__  =Gilbert school embracing e-reader technology with Nook Club= [] A group of six sixth graders are rotated every two weeks, so every student gets a chance to use the Nooks.

=Knack for Nook: E-devices help learning in Hoover schools (slideshow and video)= [] Nooks are loaded with a virtual reference library, including dictionaries, etc. and students have to take a "Nook Citizenship Test" and sign a contract before they can use it.

= Nooks at The Unquiet Library = []

__Book Awards__ Inspired by this article: [] [] [] Key things to keep in mind: Mock Caldecott is solely for illustrations, perhaps want to start a "Carteret Book Awards" that examines cover art, endpapers, font choices, page layout, etc. At the end of the school year, team with math teachers to graph winners (collaboration, coordination!!!) and have an Oscars style assembly for the winners.
