I've spent some time in my book stacks, looking at valuable print resources (weed?, keep (in case the power grid is interruped indefinitely?), and knowing that today's students will be invariably looking for their info via their electronic access devices. I've also dialogued with a teacher about use of Kindles, and we've been experimenting and exploring their use with visually or hearing challenged students--looking at writing grants (for the e-readers? for the titles? for class groups???). And, I've read a recently published article given me by a colleague on "Digital Readers" by Lotta C. Larson (The Reading Teacher, Sept. 2010) in which regular students responded and interacted with e-readers. So, decision-making has become a stressor and art within itself. I'll be interested in others' input into this challenge. Wow,
