2. What is L4L?

3. Learning 4 Life (L4Ling) Librarians teach lifelong learning through the AASL standards. We do this in a lot of different ways. We do this because students desperately need to L4L. L4Ling is essential to prepare students for the 21st Century. Two AASL books can talk you through the nitty gritty of L4Ling: L4Ling is outlined in the AASL Standards for the 21st Century Learner. Building and sustaining School Library Media Programs that promote L4Ling can be learned from Empowering Learners. To follow we have the (very) abridged version.
