bookgirl614 Oct 18 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1 I don't have to wait on the copy machine line anymore #NJLibChat

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@SEMSLibraryLady No, you have to pay for it. I'm not a fan of EasyBib. Many of the citations are incredibly wrong. #NJLibChat

abookforfrances Oct 18 @ 8:24 PM EDT

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@hshaffer That's such a big trend with the blended learning environment #NJLibChat T's should really screencast more often.

MsJWhiting Oct 18 @ 8:25 PM EDT

When it comes to MLA8, not all citation generators (or databases for that matter) have finished the transition to the new format #NJLibChat

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:25 PM EDT

@KatieJMcNamara you are a true graphic artist, my dear #NJLibChat

abookforfrances Oct 18 @ 8:29 PM EDT

MsJWhiting Oct 18 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@kristawelz In Gale S's can highlight, annotate & download to their Drive. Article becomes a doc with highlight, notes & citation #NJLibChat

MsJWhiting Oct 18 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A6: would love to see more powerful design tools in #GAFE slides; many uses beyond presentations #NJLibChat

SEMSLibraryLady Oct 18 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@AMitchell828 Thanks, Angie! Better to do one training, not 5 min with each T, right? #NJLibchat

AMitchell828 Oct 18 @ 8:54 PM EDT

MsJWhiting Oct 18 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A6: would also like to upload files to forms; upload a .pdf rather than copy and paste long text #NJLibChat

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@noveltalk YES! I always wind up creating my own background and all and then "adding it to the theme". #NJLibchat

AMitchell828 Oct 18 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@SEMSLibraryLady I just changed it to where everyone can view. I am sorry about that. https://t.co/Xs1CodjdYI #njlibchat

MsJWhiting Oct 18 @ 8:57 PM EDT

Would like to try setting up a classroom as a #GAFE escape room as tools tutorial! #NJLibChat

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:57 PM EDT

SEMSLibraryLady Oct 18 @ 8:57 PM EDT

@MsJWhiting Thanks! #NJLibchat

bradmcurrie Oct 18 @ 8:57 PM EDT

Enjoyed all the tremendous insight on #NJLibChat. Keep fighting the good fight!

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:58 PM EDT

kristawelz - Moderator Oct 18 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@MsJWhiting interesting! Let me know how that works out! #NJLibchat

AMitchell828 Oct 18 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@kristawelz @SEMSLibraryLady They're awesome to work with also. They're working on a way to save student progress on Forms. #njlibchat

hshaffer Oct 18 @ 8:59 PM EDT

@noveltalk @MsJWhiting https://t.co/NE8G8B2Dzg Try this for some new theme options. #NJLibChat
