2021 - Library Media Centers
Policy: 2021
Section: 2000 - Instruction
Library Media Centers
Library/media centers will be used to support
and extend the classroom program of instruction. Each center will provide a
broad range of instructional equipment and learning resources to support the
school curriculum and meet the unique needs of students.
Each district library/media center will be appropriately staffed to assist
teachers and students in the use of the collection, as well as in the
completion of teacher and/or student assignments. The Teacher-Librarian
and the library media staff will assist students and teachers in securing a
variety of resources which support student mastery of the essential academic
learning requirements and the implementation of the district’s school
improvement plan. Additionally, the Teacher-Librarian, through the school
library media program, will collaborate as an instructional partner and
information specialist to help all students meet the content goals in all
subject areas, provide information, technology literacy instruction and assist
high school students completing the culminating project and high school and
beyond plans.
The superintendent will establish procedures for the selection of materials. Citizens who wish to express a concern about specific material included in the collection may do so according to the procedures outlined in Procedure 2021P, with the understanding that the criteria and rationale for reconsideration of library resources differs from the criteria and rationale for reconsideration of classroom/curricular instructional materials.
