As heard on Larry King Live last night.

Okay - here's my honk:  I received Teacher of the Year for my High School this past Friday.  Yeah!  Woohoo!

Well, Deb Stanley has been Teacher of the Year, and I know that there was another woman earlier this year whose principal needed convincing but ultimately awarded her  Teacher of the Year (I can't find the email but I remember it from CALIB).

What I want to compile is a list of Teacher Librarians who have received Teacher of the Year or a similar honor.  Deb and I think it may help advocacy efforts.

So please let me know if you have received Teacher of the Year or equivalent or if you know a Teacher Librarian who has.

THANKS!

"This is the age of the open-source encyclopedia.  Words like 'research' and 'corroborated' now mean whatever the majority says they mean.  Personally, I'm voting for 'research' to mean 'speculation' and 'corroborated' to mean 'a zesty sour cream-based dip.'"
