Customer Reviews

Be a proactive slms -- read this book!

As a first year school library media specialist (slms), I found this practical handbook full of a variety of ideas and tips for grades K-12. I found myself not reading far before I was stopping once again to make a note for future implementation. Enjoyable to read, the tone is similar to a conversation one would have with an experienced and insightful mentor. Emphasis is on planning and promotion. Sample forms are provided -ex. interest survey to determine appropriate programming, planning checklist, community resource questionnaire, library volunteer form. A selective topical bibliography offers further reading possibilities. For slms's or teachers who are looking to begin / continue school programming, this book will prove more than worth your time. Five star recommendation.
