The Information Literacy And Children’s Literature Specialist

The library staff don’t own the library.  You can recommend and request resources  You can book the library as a reading area or teaching space  Consider the library as a research and learning centre

The best resource in the library is the teacher librarian. Teacher librarians can:  Help you plan a guided inquiry  Help you solve a technology problem  Find professional research  Answer a reference question  If we can’t do it, we can find someone who can  Obtain materials from other libraries  Celebrate your students’ work  Have an overview of the whole school curriculum

Advanced planning is a good thing.  It ensures that we have resources to suit your needs.  It gives us time to prepare links to appropriate websites.  Experienced librarians can help you to know what will work.  We can help to create assessment that considers both PROCESS and PRODUCT.

The library provides both print and digital resources.  Sometimes print resources are better suited to students’ needs.  Students need to be taught how to read, question, evaluate and compare information from internet sites.  Younger students need child-friendly search engines.  We can help you select websites best suited for your students’ use.

The teacher librarian can provide support with technology.  Location and availability of equipment  Use of scanners, camera, video cameras  How to use programs that kids have access to eg Kidspiration, Kidpix, Ziptales  Keep you in touch with the latest PD opportunities

We can help your students’ performance on reading tests.  Matching readers to books  Giving book talks  Finding literature to support your units of work  Providing favourite or new authors  Meet remedial or extension reading needs

 Need someone to share the glory or shame of a new unit?  Need someone to listen to you brag about a fantastic lesson?  Need to pick someone’s brain?  Need to team teach a new methodology or subject area for moral support? Get to know your Teacher Librarian!
