From teacher evaluations of a "Best Practices" workshop series conducted for the South Carolina State Department of Education, November 2005

"Frank Baker was a wonderful asset to our third ILILE (Institute for Library and Information Literacy Education) Summer Workshop series at Kent State University.  Not only was his presentation well-delivered and engaging, but he took much time to interact with our teacher and school library media specialist participants one-on-one.  His media literacy topics and examples were timely and relevant and supportive to the Ohio Department of Education Library Guidelines."
