I want to amend my information below about Teen Health & Wellness. I
incorrectly quoted our cost at $1,500. It was actually $795 (I didn’t think
$1,500 seemed that “economical” so I doubled checked this morning 😊)
But sadly, I also checked the usage this morning and we’ve only had about 60
searches since August 1st (I subtracted the high usage of myself and the
counselors which occurred during the initial subscription month). This
calculates to a cost of over $13 per search (yikes!) We are a large school
(1650 students) so that’s .03 searches per student. ☹
I am interested to know if the usage at other schools is higher and if so what
sort of promotion have you done and/or why do you think your school might have
higher usage than Bellarmine.
Thanks everyone!

Exactly the same for us. We've had Rosen Teen Health & Wellness for several
years now. When Cameron's collection became available it did not seem necessary
to add it.

Last summer in consultation with our counselors I purchased a subscription to:
https://teenhealthandwellness.com/
This is Rosen’s Teen Health and Wellness. We were impressed with many of the
features including the ability to customize the HOTLINES with our own local
crisis numbers. There is a lot of teen to teen written articles (all edited
and vetted by professionals of course). Although the counselors were excited
about it I’m not sure how often they refer students to it. I have posters up
around school and it is prominent on every page of our Library Resources links.
I haven’t checked usage recently but when I do I will report back. It was
economical ($1,500/year) for us so I decided to give it a try (I would assume
it’s cheaper for smaller schools).
I opted NOT to buy physical books because:
1. They go out of date really fast
2. An out of date cover kills the book immediately in a teen’s eyes
3. Students will hesitate to bring a physical book to the counter to check
out.
4. I wanted the ability to post local HOTLINE phone #’s online.
I considered and rejected Cameron’s collection. I believe I just liked Teen
Health and Wellness more. I can’t remember the price difference.
I hope this input helps.

I looked at this collection as well - I'll be curious to hear if your books are
well received.

Andrea,
I have just today pushed the button to purchase a portion of Gale's Camerons
collection. Our counsellors selected from the rather long list, and we will be
making them available to students as ebooks anytime, anywhere, in complete
anonymity. I would be pleased to let you know what uptake is in a little while.
