School Libraries 3.0: Principles and Practices for the Digital Age

School Libraries 3.0: Principles and Practices for the Digital Age by Butler, Rebecca P.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780810885806.

This textbook, for school library administration courses, is written by a professor who has taught this course at least once a year for the past twenty years. Technology is interwoven throughout the book and not listed as a separate chapter or book section. This is because the school librarian of today―and certainly the school librarian of tomorrow―is working in an environment of web resources, multimedia, mixed methods, and varying programs and services. Major chapters cover the various roles of the school librarian, curricular standards and guidelines, policies and procedures, budgeting, facilities, personnel, services, programming, ethics, advocacy, and evaluation. Sample policies, procedures, and plans make this book valuable to both new and experienced school librarians.
