I envision the school library as the place students and staff come to meet their need for access to resources, exposure to an expanse of literary options, and building blocks required for life long learning.

Connection with Library Community Reaching Out : Beyond School Walls -- The feature article in the Winter, 2008 edition of SpotLight Digest, an online publication of S. O. S. Information Literacy, includes anecdotal examples I contributed from our library at P. S. 160. The trick is to take advantage of special events at school, and be available as a librarian for your staff as parents, in order to bring school library resources into the hands of those who need them! Storybook Character Day -- it is an unbeatable combination: storybook characters + elementary schoolers! Any event of this nature starts with an invitation. Successful Author Visits -- the entire library community benefits when authors come to call. Canarsie Library Newsletter-- Designed for flexibility and ease of implementation, this newsletter project was created in direct response to the needs the head librarian at Canarsie High School: library program publicity, marketing of new acquisitions and a vechicle for two-way communication with school patrons.
