Creating a Student-Centered Library: A Discussion Panel

Block B Session 11:10 AM – 12:10 PM

Students are the school library’s primary clients. Ensuring that the place, collection and services meet their needs is essential. Creating a sense of ownership and community will help the students connect, use, participate and contribute to the library. Join two librarians and their consultant to hear what these librarians are doing to create a student centered library. By better understanding our client’s needs we can strive to create libraries that truly support their learning and success.
