Know & Go
Updates @your Library Welcome Back! In my weekly search for school library news, the decision was made to discuss the library as a supportive hub for the school. As I work with all the librarians across the district there is definitely a change in school library landscape and their role as communicator, collaborator, coach, and teacher. School libraries are more relevant today than ever before... IF they are evolving to meet the needs of digital age learners. I love this quote from the Mediamorphosis, "The library, as we once knew it, may no longer be relevant. School librarians, as we once knew them, may no longer be relevant. And, yet, this is undoubtedly the most exciting time in history to be a librarian. For the first time in history we are moving from a time of information scarcity to one of information abundance." As we get started with this new and exciting school year there are some things that I want to do to support your efforts with the students: 1. Communicate regularly through newsletter, email, or face-to-face 2. Find time to collaborate 3. Make an effort to involve and try new library-related activities 4. Support the love of reading initiative #parkwayreads 5. Provide resources that support student and teacher needs
