Scrible at MSLA 2018 Conference

Our Scrible Team was thrilled to attend and sponsor the Massachusetts School Library Association (MSLA) 2018 Conference in Worcester, Massachusetts! MSLA works to ensure that every school has a library program that’s integrated across grades and subjects and has a significant, measurable impact on student success. Thanks and congrats to MSLA and the Conference planners for hosting an amazing event that focused on the needs of Massachusetts school libraries and media specialists.

Sponsorship
We were a Silver Sponsor because school librarians are our peops and we’re excited to work with Bay State media specialists!

Mass Librarians
Our CEO, Victor, and Teaching Specialist, Dacey, tag-teamed a booth to demo key features of the Scrible Edu platform. We had meaningful conversations and everyone loved Scrible. It was great to see familiar faces and meet new librarians. We gathered feedback on new features for media specialists and learned how school libraries operate in Massachusetts. We’re looking forward to working with the many folks we met at the Conference!
 

Speakers and Awardees
Day 1 of the Conference concluded with a dinner, awards ceremony and closing keynote by Jennifer​ ​Casa-Todd​ titled Empowering​ ​Students​ To​ Be​ ​Digital​ ​Leaders. The Awards were an opportunity for the Bay State’s school library community to recognize and celebrate its notable advocates, leaders and innovative and impactful librarians. Our CEO was happy to meet Service Awardee Greg Pronevitz, an experienced and widely respected advocate for Massachusetts libraries, and catch up with Opening Keynote Speaker Tom Murray, Director of Innovation for Future Ready Schools.
  

Library, Technology and Media… OH MY!!  We had an awesome time at MSLA and look forward to working with Massachusetts librarians to support research, writing, media literacy and technology skills across the Bay State!

Scrible at NJASL Fall Conference

NJASL 2017 Fall Conference

Scrible was just at the New Jersey Association of School Librarians (NJASL) Fall Conference at the Ocean Place Resort and Spa in Long Branch the week before Thanksgiving!

Our Cofounder/CEO Victor loved meeting and hanging out with librarians and attendees from all over New Jersey. He chatted with and showed them Scrible at our booth.

       

We were excited to see that our session was well attended, with 50 engaged librarians attending and asking questions! The session was title and description were:

Scrible + Google = Personalized Learning for Research and Writing!
50% of secondary students struggle with research and aren’t ready for college writing. Using Scrible with G Suite instills strong research/writing skills. Scrible lets students curate, annotate and collaborate on articles and offers citations/bibliographies and Google Docs integration, helping students organize their work. Real-time analytics enable teachers to track student progress and personalize interventions.

Conference attendees loved Scrible. So, we’re excited to have them try Scrible at their schools!

Scrible at AASL Conference

 

The Scrible Team was excited to be at the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) National Conference in Phoenix last week! We had a blast hanging out with school librarians from all over the country.

Opening Keynote

We were off to a great start on Day 1 when Google’s Global Education Evangelist, Jaime Casap, gave us a shout out during his Opening Keynote for being in Google’s Media Literacy App Bundle!

 

Google Booth

Following his speech, Jaime went to the Google booth to hang out with throngs of engaged librarians… And that’s where we were! As a Google for Education Partner, we were stationed there next to Google’s Connor Regan, who was there representing Be Internet Awesome (BIA), Google’s initiative on digital safety and citizenship for kids. BIA was a great complement to our discussions about media literacy. We loved neighboring and partnering with Connor! He told folks about us and we returned the favor.  🙂

 

Unconference

We were excited to be invited by Joyce Valenza – a leading voice and thought leader on school librarianship – to present Scrible at the Unconference at the end of Day 1. It was fun and the highlight was the passionate, funny and boisterous Nancy Jo Lambert – a leading teacher librarian from Frisco ISD – interjecting her enthusiastic support for Scrible to Unconference participants during our presentation! Check it out here:

 

Librarian Love

We were happy to demo Scrible for school librarians from across the country. We were excited to see they loved Scrible! We look forward to them trying Scrible at their schools with their teachers and students!
