Every student deserves access to a fully-funded school library staffed by certified school librarians. Congress can help get us there. Urge your elected officials to support legislation to ensure school library access for EVERY student: oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/messages/edit?…

"To consider using the library space in HISD campuses as a discipline center rather than as a site for learning and literacy demonstrates a concerning disregard for the education of HISD’s children."

Check out this quote from the @sljournal review: "Whether these projects, which are well thought out and flexible to schedule and learner needs, are used independently or collaboratively with educators, elementary librarians will benefit from this valuable resource."
