AASL has developed a video introduction (6:36) to its newest tool, “A Planning Guide for Empowering Learners.” Advance orders are now available for the tool, which is expected to launch in mid-August. The planning guide is a program evaluation, planning, implementation, and advocacy tool that will ensure school library program planners go beyond the basics to provide goals, priorities, criteria, and general principles for establishing effective library programs....

I just watched the introduction, and this looks very helpful. For $40 a year, this tool appears to be a manageable way to monitor and improve every aspect of the school library program. Sign me up! (MHouse)
