What is it school librarians do?
I've been inspired by the blog, The Adventures of Library Girl, and I especially love her post, "Your Students Need a Reading Champion - Giving Yourself Permission to Read." On that note, I need to return or rather start blogging about my profession as a high school librarian. For the past 8 years, I've focused on the information literacy component or the teaching research, but one of the reasons I pursued the MLIS and this vocation was to become an advocate of reading and be awesome at delivering book talks and putting a book in a kid's hands. And I've sucked at that honestly. So here's where I'm going to start reading, rehearsing a book talks and finding the best passage to read aloud and pique a student's interest. I'm drawing most of my training from the Pikes Peak Library District's "Booktalking Colorado."
