We are joined by Charity Harbeck, the librarian at Franklinton High School, to discuss issues surrounding ebooks and audiobooks in school library collections. For our tech tips we share ways to use Google Tour Builder in ELA and Science classes and how to enhance and organize Google Keep. For books, we each talk an audiobook.
