Recensioner i media

This book will be useful in facilitating conversations about how school librarians can be instrumental in transforming teaching and learning in schools today. I would use this book to inspire rich conversations with principals and school librarians about their important and evolving roles and how it can change the traditional landscape of school libraries.
