This book illuminates school librarian and teacher librarian
education and training in light of the 2015 IFLA School Library
Guidelines, second edition. The Guidelines provide a framework for
effective service delivery to ensure that students and teachers
have access to quality library services delivered by qualified
librarians and information professionals. The book focuses on
moving professional practice forward, translating the Guidelines
into actions ensuring effective education and training and improved
practice. The book highlights issues and concerns related to school
librarian and teacher librarian education and training. What
attitudes, skills and knowledge are required to inspire students
and support teaching and learning effectively? What curriculum
content is required? How are field and practical experiences
integrated appropriately into face-to-face and online educational
and training programmes? How are leadership skills developed
effectively? Case studies and innovative educational and training
programmes from around the world illustrate the diverse ways of
preparing librarians for the roles identified in the Guidelines.
Topics covered include: delivering school librarian credentialled
programmes; improving school librarian services; providing
professional development; preparing and delivering educational
and/or cultural programmes and services; managing human resources;
collection development of digital and print resources; innovative
aspects of technology use; promotion and advocacy; and evaluation
and assessment.
This book celebrates the new IFLA School Library Guidelines and
shows how the Guidelines can be used in improving school library
services. Each chapter describes innovative initiatives for
developing, implementing and promoting school library guidelines.
The book provides inspiration and guidance for the creation of
national school library standards and for the development and use
of standards and guidelines to change school library practice, to
define the teaching role of school librarians, to guide the initial
preparation of school librarians, and to advocate for school
library services. Contributors to the book come from around the
world: Australia, Canada, Ethiopia, France, Malaysia, Norway,
Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United States. Their work
illustrates the shared commitment of school librarians around the
world to "teaching and learning for all", as envisioned in the
IFLA/UNESCO School Library Manifesto.
