Surround students with diverse and interesting material that speak to their interests and identities, and keep books visible. "It sends an unspoken message that reading is important and valued in a school." By @edutopia #weneedmorediversebooks edutopia.org/article/school…

A2: My #1 thing is that I genuinely believe the media center is their space. Really I’m just there to make it work for them. So if whatever they need doesn’t fit my expectations, I throw the expectations out the door. #galibchat

A4: Same answer for me - helping people 1:1, it’s really the only thing I’m super-good at, which explains my previous career choices (private piano teacher + public library customer service) #galibchat

A3: I’m good at finding creative solutions, patient with annoying “kid behaviors”, but not good at dotting all my t’s and crossing my i’s instructionally (see what I mean??) #galibchat

A1: Being somewhat task oriented, the thing that most makes me feel valued (by far) is when student progress or benefit is directly attributed to my work. #galibchat

A1: My teachers know I can fix tech problems and help with book needs. Most are receptive when I reach out to work with them on lessons, but they know they aren’t required to work with me - so I always have to take the initiative on any collaboration. #GALibChat

A1: I will only add that “future ready” shouldn’t be mis-interpreted as “redesigned so that student success will be ensured at all times.” Trial and error, occasional failure, are still important components of learning. #GALibChat

A1 Student learning in a future ready library is a collaborative community of learners that encourages meaningful risk taking. It is not a quiet environment. #GaLibChat
