Description

The school library underpins and actively supports the school’s core business of learning and teaching. This is undertaken through the planning and implementation of programs and services. The quality of these programs and services are dependent on a number of factors which include staffing, resourcing and professional learning. How can the school library develop and work to its capacity? How do we recognise what the benchmarks are for an effective school library? This presentation will explore these concepts through the lens of the national association. This will include a focus on how and why the national association adopts the strategy for the creation of national documentation that specifically targets and supports the school library and school library personnel. Anne Girolami, ALIA Schools Anne Girolami is Learning Leader - Information Services at Mercy College, Coburg a catholic girls’ secondary school that follows the Mercy Charism, in the northern suburbs of Melbourne.
