Short Description
In this era of unprecedented school reform and budget cuts, librarians can survive and thrive as embedded professional development (PD) leaders. We will discuss several PD models from our new book Growing Schools: Librarians as Professional Developers and explore together how we can use information literacy to improve our schools from the inside out. Participants will develop a plan for taking the first “baby step” (or maybe another step) toward becoming a teacher of teachers in their schools.
