[ISLMA-Share] How to let teachers know about the new materials in the library

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I highlight “new books” in my monthly electronic newsletters to middle school and high school staff.  It’s not linked to Destiny, but I do organize them by the content areas that I think would be most interested in the books.  I also include some of the new arrivals in the slide show on the kiosk (photo frame) that is kept on my circulation desk that I update every few weeks.

Destiny Quest shows the 15 newest books added to the library, which is nice, but the teachers don't always go there. Does anyway have a nice way to show the teachers and staff when new books come in and which books they are?
