SESSION DESCRIPTION
This session will present the way a TL works with the teachers at her school to create Information Scavenger Hunts. These hunts use resources in the library to provide scaffolding information on the background of classroom novels or other sections of the curriculum, including tools such as the World Café. Attendees will leave with a number of Information Scavenger Hunts (including several on wikis) and the procedure for creating Information Scavenger Hunts of their own.
