Learn about the AASL L4L Planning Guide On Demand

Saturday, August 14th, 2010

There are all sorts of planning strategies among school librarians. The “write it on the back of your business card” plan, the “keep it in your head” plan, the “overflowing file folder of everything I might ever need to get this project done” plan …

AASL has launched a new L4L online planning tool to help members plan and track the implementation of their building or district L4L initiative. It requires a yearly subscription fee.

MAME Conference Presentations

Saturday, November 14th, 2009

Whew - is it just me, or do the turning of the leaves herald that whiplash season known as CONFERENCE SEASON??? I’m a bit behind on sharing about the Michigan Association for Media in Education (MAME) conference, the AASL conference, and the Sam Houston Book Festival, so the next few posts will catch me up!

At the Michigan Association for Media in Education October 21-23 at the Grand Traverse Resort, we were thrilled to host Christopher Harris and Ben Mikaelson as keynote speakers.

I was fortunate to get to present both alone and with colleagues:

State conferences are a great chance to talk with practitioners and build local networks.  In the next post, I’ll summarize the national AASL conference!

Empowering Learners (new AASL Guidelines)

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Gulp - the new AASL guidelines, Empowering Learners, cost $42.  $42 for 64 pages.  That’s a lot.

But as I’ve been discussing the guidelines with friends and colleagues, it occurs to me that the document identifies instructional partner as our #1 future role … and yet the guidelines have little to do with creating a school environment that makes that partnering possible.  Instead, the guidelines primarily concern themselves with collection development, staffing, and library management.

Now isn’t that interesting.
