Whilst many of us will be at VALA, for those who aren’t, Tuesday 9th February is a day to note, its Safer Internet Day 2010!

Even with the issue of ISP filtering is still ongoing, we can’t forget that one of the best protections for children on the internet continues to be education.

So on Safer Internet Day 2010, why don’t you:

• Check out the resources on cybersafety that ALIA and public library staff have worked with ACMA to develop
• Revisit the Cybersmart guide for library staff, to refresh yourself and to get some inspiration on how to promote this important topic
• Download and display the cybersmart poster
• Promote the cybersmart website to your library users and staff
• Note the date, so you can plan bigger and better promotions in 2011
