Short Description
Technology has made an impact on the elementary libraries of the digital age of information. Findings from this study suggest that the elementary school library and the role of the school librarian must change and grow with that of the quickening pace of technology. To do this, school librarians must think about how to best serve their students, often doing more with less, as they seek to uphold the tradition to serve and to make a difference in this new digital age of communications.
