What is a clearinghouse?
 
clear·ing·house
ˈkli(ə)riNGˌhous: an agency or organization that collects and distributes something, especially information.

Hope you will visit the Education Technology Clearinghouse from the Florida Center for Educational  Technology.   http://etc.usf.edu/  This is an excellent example of a clearinghouse.
They have collected a terrific amount of valuable sources. (clip art, lesson plans, maps and MORE!)

Starting September 21--Remember American Library Association "Banned Books Week"

Don't let censorship tip you on your side.
Deciding which books fit your interests and personal code of ethics becomes increasingly important.  The American Library Association's Office of Intellectual Freedom tallies reported book challenges.
"Banned Books" Week brings focus to this issue.  Visit their webpage in your investigation of  censorship issues.  http://www.ala.org/bbooks/bannedbooksweek
