Description

Teachers and teacher-librarians hold the key to creating powerful learning opportunities that will help students work more effectively in the modern world. This thought-provoking book discusses the literacy needs of students and the changing responsibilities of teachers and teacher-librarians in helping students to become better readers, writers, and researchers. The book offers a number of suggestions for re-inventing the school library — from promoting reading for learning and pleasure to supporting research methods that respect copyright and lead to original work to encouraging the integration of emerging technologies and traditional resources.
