How can you make your school library media programme more successful? This book identifies current trends and thinking about library media specialists as change agents and their roles in school improvement, curriculum design, collaboration with teachers, and building information literacy. Reprinted from recent issues of "Emergency Librarian", 39 articles offer stimulating discussions on learning theories, flexible scheduling, new technologies, thematic units, new partnerships and more. Articles are organized into seven sections - foundations, the school context, role clarification, information literacy, collaborative planning and teaching, programme development, and accountability.
