As sponsor of the “AASL School Leader Collaborative: Administrators & School Librarians Transforming Teaching and Learning” program, OverDrive Education proudly supports school libraries and librarians and their essential role in teaching and learning.

Check out a few great videos below for Collaborative administrators’ reflections on the positive impact of school librarians.

1. Administrators on EDI and school libraries

“District superintendents and school principals reflect on how school librarians fortify educational equity, diversity and access, creating doors and windows for learners through diverse literature and information resources. School librarians prompt all educators to challenge the givens and advance culturally responsive teaching, because learning is not a one-size-fits-all pursuit.“

2. Administrators partner with school librarians

“District superintendents and school principals reflect on their strong partnerships with school librarians and the critical roles school librarians play in every student being successful.”

3. Administrators on #AASLstandards

“District superintendents and school principals reflect on how working with school librarians and the National School Library Standards has enhanced teaching and learning, goal setting and curriculum connections across subject areas and throughout their schools and districts.”

4. Administrators on school librarians leading collaboration

“District superintendents and school principals reflect on how school librarians set the tone for collaboration in their learning communities, innovatively supporting other educators, fostering collaborative culture and making learning come alive.”
