Episode description

Librarians can help classroom teachers in sooooo many ways, and classroom teachers can return the favor by reminding kids they can always go further than the classroom library to the larger collection at the school or local library, and tap into their librarian's intricate knowledge of the collection to find even more books to love.

Forming a bridge between the work you do in class and the life of your school or local library will help kids be connected to book sources and experts beyond the time they spend in your classroom.

So today I want to dedicate a full episode to talking about the power of this collaboration and sharing creative options.

If you're thinking sadly that your school doesn't have a librarian, or that your school librarian is frantically trying to serve the needs of thousands of kids with a tiny budget and no staff, then remember that many community librarians would love to get your call and help you bring more books into your students' lives.
