Use the What Borrowers Can Do section as your guide. You could show the videos, post them on your website, or create your own.
Set the Ground Rules
Remember that students under 13 are covered by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (“COPPA”). They can’t use their real names, or make up their own names, in Bibliocommons. They’ll be given a choice of a color, an animal and a number. Or they can login with their library card number. They can rate books (with stars) but they won’t be able to comment or use their real name or a name of their own invention until they turn 13.
You’ll also set ground rules for your teachers. (See What Teachers (and Curators) Can Do.)
You will need to develop naming conventions for your location, based on your own user name and covered further in See What Teachers (and Curators) Can Do.
Searching
You got a brief introduction that you can use with patrons, but the search feature in Bibliocommon has some capabilities we didn’t even think to ask for! Here is everything you need to know about Searching Bibliocommons.
