Mission Statement
The mission of the school library program is to ensure that students and staff are effective users of ideas and information (AASL, 2019).
Vision Statement
As a school librarian, I want to empower students and staff to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers, and ethical users of information (AASL, 2019).
Goals
While books are still a big part of the library and our goal is to have proficient readers, the library is so much more than just books now. Jobs today require students to have high-level innovative thinking, problem-solving, and information management skills. I want to equip students with the ability to locate, plan and prepare themselves through a variety of engaging lessons and hands-on activities.
