Pictures - everybody's got pictures. With digital cameras it's easy to upload all your photographs to a website and share them with the world or just your family and friends. There are many different site for this like Flickr, Shutterfly and Picasa.

This is a great way for libraries to let the world know that there's more happening in the building than just books.
This time instead of setting up an account, we'll just explore.
We'll do Flickr first - just 'cause the Library has an account. Our account was started at the time of the construction of the 2nd floor. We wanted to be able to show patrons our progress. You can find our pictures here - La Grange Park Library.
La Grange, Brookfield, Thomas Ford libraries all have accounts along with Jenny Levine (The Shifted Librarian) from ALA and Michael Stephens from Dominican University.
Try searching for other pictures from La Grange Park. Try searching using lagrangepark or quotes or with spaces. Did you get different pictures? Can you figure out why? Leave your answers on your blog.
And there's one more for you to look at here

Hi Kate,
Was that deer in your yard? Wonder how he got all the way there by himself?
