Description
School librarians prepare
students to be lifelong learners in the twenty-first century. However, every
school librarian needs to re-assess and update their practices in order to meet
the needs of their students. This issue features articles that outline
best practices in four practice areas: Building a Culture of Reading, Information & Knowledge
Building, Empowering Learners and Teachers, and Preparing for Library/Librarian
Evaluation.
