This is the best time in history to be a teacher-librarian. Major shifts in our information and communication landscapes present new opportunities for librarians to teach and lead in areas that were always considered part of their role, helping learners of all ages effectively use, manage, evaluate, organize and communicate information, and to love reading in its glorious new variety.
A school’s teacher-librarian is its chief information officer, but in a networked world, the position is more that of moderator or coach, the person who ensures that students and teachers can effectively interact with information and leverage it to create and share and make a difference in the community and beyond.

use, manage, evaluate, organize and communicate information, and to love reading
in its glorious new variety.

chief information officer, but in a networked world, the position is more that
of moderator or coach, the person who ensures that students and teachers can
effectively interact with information and leverage it to create and share and
make a difference in the community and beyond.
For background, take
a look at the
Standards
for the 21st Century Learner
. These information-fluency standards scream
inquiry, critical thinking, digital citizenship, creative communication,
collaboration, and networking.
For librarians, and for most other
professionals, the game has changed. There is no textbook for new practice, and
it is absolutely true that some of us are a little more retooled than others.
Nevertheless, there are at least 14 retooled learning strategies that
teacher-librarians should be sharing with classroom teachers and learners in the
2009–2010 school year.
