[CALIBK12] Closing all high school libraries - SOS

[Debra Bohnett]

Dear all,

 

This is for the high schools utilizing the small learning community
model. How have your library services changed utilizing this model? Do
you see an increased need for school libraries utilizing this model, a
decrease or the same?  Our district has moved to this model for all four
of our comprehensive high schools and there is a movement to eliminate
high school libraries because there is a perceived notion that libraries
will not be necessary.  I am the teacher librarian at a relatively new
high school that has been utilizing the SLC model since it opened so I
do not have a comparison.

 

Please respond ASAP - the district librarian is at a hearing today that
may determine the fate of high school libraries in our district. . .

 

Thank you,

Debra Bohnett
