Published in partnership with the International Association of
School Librarianship, this work gathers together the latest and
most important research on the topics of social justice and
cultural competency in school libraries. Education systems today
are expected to advance national goals related to fairness, equity,
and social cohesion. Comprising articles written and collected in
the journal of the International Association of School
Librarianship and new articles written especially for this
anthology, this book documents both empirical research and
promising practices to help school librarians and teachers work
together to promote social justice and develop learners' and
educators' cultural competence. Both coeditors are experienced in
working with authors from around the world and have participated in
the development of standards and guidelines for school library
practitioners that are effective and ethical. Brief real life case
studies of school librarians and teachers in action showcase
efforts to improve the lives of marginalized or under-served
students. School librarians inside and outside of the United
States, school library educators and policymakers, and academic
librarians building school librarianship collections will find this
guide valuable. Includes evidence-based approaches to dealing with
challenges to the educational and moral purposes of schools
Features fresh perspectives on shared concerns from colleagues
Provides access to research and promising practices
