Finding the right balance for technology in K12 libraries
Because of their important role as technology hubs, school libraries are transforming to accommodate an expansion in digital resources.
Supporting project-based learning with innovative school library design
Many school districts are now emphasizing “21st Century Skills” such as collaboration, flexibility, leadership, and social skills. This shift in curriculum encourages collaboration between students and between educators. School librarians, with their expertise in information literacy and research skills, are a key collaborator.
