A good book, and plan to use parts of it as my new librarianship bible. Johnston does write in a way that reflects his long standing a library administrator. SOME of his writing seems a bit out of touch with the everyday librarian, but his stance on almost points is applaudable. Excellent phrasing of thoughts and arguments. ( ) There isn't a more relevant book out on what is happening and can be happening is school libraries today. An update to Johnson's 1997 edition, this second edition embraces technology and clearly states that transformation isn't an option for school library programs today. It has practical strategies and solutions to many concerns teacher librarians have today in their programs, and it stealthily encourages teacher librarian professionals to not only be on the "bandwagon" of change, but lead it. Not to be missed, Johnson explores a range of school library issues, from planning success, embracing and influencing curriculum to sheer survival of the program. Highly recommended. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
