50 ways to love your library booklet

50 Ways to Love Your Library by Carlene Walter and the Saskatchewan School Library Association is a must read for all teacher-librarians, especially in these troubling budgetary times. (Why do we tend to wait until the crisis hits to do what we should have been doing all along?)

Oh, found out about this in a print publication - Teacher-Librarian. Did I miss the announcement in the blogosphere or are paper journals still of value?

Doug -thanks for the acknowledgment of Carlene's article. We are very proud of Carlene and the work that she has undertaken for the our organization, the Saskatchewan School Library Association. She has also organized a series of virtual seminars with Sharon Grimes, author of Reading is our Business, that are proving to be a very positive form of professional learning for our members. Carlene challenges and inspires us to keep going when things look bleak for school libraries and teacher-librarianship.
