Assessing student learning is a highly important issue in schools today. Focusing on the role of the school library media specialist, this is the first full-length book to go beyond the theoretical and address the practical application of the assessment of student learning in the school library media center. It is an important source for school library media specialists as they address their roles as "teachers" in schools, and the subsequent accountability issues associated with that role. Placing students at the center of the assessment equation, the book addresses the following topics as they relate to school library instructional programs: The purpose of assessment; The essential elements of assessment; Knowing what to assess; Multiple methods for assessment; The management and communication of assessment results. Presenting doable, practical methods, this in-depth analysis for the school library field will help school library media specialists confidently become involved in the assessment of student learning. Educators centrally involved in K-12 programs, including district, regional and state library media coordinators, building level administrators and library school educators will find much of value in this book, as well as K-12 teachers charged with providing evidence of student achievement.

This is the most comprehensive textbook on school library administration available, now updated to include the latest standards and address new technologies. This reference text provides a complete instructional overview of the workings of the library media center—from the basics of administration, budgeting, facilities management, organization, selection of materials, and staffing to explanations on how to promote information literacy and the value of digital tools like blogs, wikis, and podcasting. Since the publication of the fourth edition of Administering the School Library Media Center in 2004, many changes have altered the landscape of school library administration: the implementation of NCLB legislation and the revision of AASL standards, just to mention two. The book is divided into 14 chapters, each devoted to a major topic in school library media management. This latest edition gives media specialists a roadmap for designing a school library that is functional and intellectually stimulating, while leading sources provide guidance for further research.
