The newly adopted Maryland School Library Media Standards for Learners, Librarians, and Libraries detail practices to empower School Library Media Specialists to transform teaching and learning. They enable school librarians to influence and lead in their schools, systems, and the state and to develop plans that meet today’s educational landscape for learners, school librarians, and school libraries.
This book study is designed to guide participants in a more in-depth investigation of current best practices in School Library Media services. Through reading, discussion, and journaling, participants will gain familiarity with ways in which these standards support teaching and learning. Each week participants will examine a Shared Foundation in depth and will submit an activity to demonstrate their learning.
