This book explores the role that librarians play within schools as
literacy leaders. While librarians working in schools are generally
perceived as peripheral to the educational experience, they can in
fact provide significant support in encouraging children's literacy
and literature learning. As the need for strong functional literacy
becomes ever more important, librarians who support literacy are
often invaluable in achieving various academic, vocational and
social goals. However, this contribution often seems to be
overlooked, with funding cuts disproportionately affecting
librarians. Building on recent research from Australia, the USA and
the UK, the author examines the role that librarians may play as
literacy educators in schools in order to make visible their
contributions to the school community. In doing so, this book urges
for greater recognition and support to school libraries and their
staff as valuable members of the school community.
