School Library Month was April

The AASL or American Association of School Librarians, is a part of ALA and totally dedicated to school librarians and their needs/ideas.  I'm a member, as well as of ALA, along with so many others.  We are dedicated to building information literacy through the schools.

We feel that students, whether they are teachers, faculty, other staff, or "students" in the traditional sense are supported by the services we provide.  We are not just librarians.  We are teachers.  We have STANDARDS and CURRICULA.  We are licensed.  We love teaching, learning and helping.

Support your school libraries & librarians.  We are usually one of the first cuts when budgets are tight and we are one of the least expendable in a school.
