MVG and the Power of the School Library Ladies: Our Legacy/Their Vision
Rita Reinsel Soulen
Knowledge Quest, v51 n3 p18-21 Jan-Feb 2023
In this article, the author examines how libraries have evolved and argues that they have not fundamentally changed. While the library spaces that students work in have changed, the lessons being learned fundamentally have not. Students still learn to find source materials, research, write, construct projects, create reference lists, and complete assessments. However, they were also learn new skills to work effectively in the new environment: using the online catalog and library databases, using word processing to write papers, creating digital presentations, making digital charts and graphs, communicating via e-mail, and selecting credible sources from the myriad available on the Web. The author argues that the fundamental role of the school librarian as instructional partner, teacher, leader, information specialist, and program administrator has not changed.
