ADOLESCENTS READ!
A new publication from the New York Life Revitalizing High School Libraries Initiative, administered by the Public Education Network, provides a snapshot of key positive results. According to New York Life Foundation’s vision, school library media centers began the academic improvement process by providing students with access to a wide range of high-interest, developmentally appropriate fiction and non-fiction reading materials. But beyond providing new materials, the initiative also created an opportunity for library media specialists to forge new relationships with students, teachers, and community members, and to expand their roles within the school in a variety of ways.
