Library Department Program Review
· · ·
Potential Implications (Short-Term and Long Term): Librarians will develop an understanding of content-area
curricula and seek out opportunities for collaboration. In the short term, implementing this change may push both
librarians and content area teachers out of their comfort zone. All involved may need some level of support or
professional development in order to implement this change. In some buildings there will be scheduling
implications. Creating opportunities for project-based learning will develop synergy between the library and the
content areas leading to elevated student learning and deeper understanding. Through assured experiences at each
grade level, learners will develop habits of mind that will empower future success.
