The purpose of school library programs is more than just books-it’s about empowering students & staff to be effective users of ideas & info! Whether for research or pleasure, the library is where learning & curiosity come to life. How do you advocate for your library’s mission? #TLSKyChat

#TLSkyChat A8: Being named the 2024 Georgia Library Media Specialist of the Year was a pretty proud (and shocking) moment for me. My district still has not recognized that I received this award, but my students know and they were so happy for me. That means the most because I do what I do for them.

# TLSkyChat A5: I do my best to prove these views outdated by sharing about our media programs on SM and on our school platforms to let our school community know that we’re doing more than just checking out/in books and shelving them.

#TLSkychat A1 con’d: I took an into to media class and an intro to instructional tech and enjoyed media more. I’ve always had a passion for books so becoming a media specialist merged my love of edtech and books. And 14 years later, I’m still rocking this gig. 😁

#TLSkychat A1: I was a classroom T ready for a change. I transitioned to a computer lab position and ❤️ed it bc I love edtech, but it was a Title I position that was never guaranteed each year. Principal encouraged me to pursue Masters in Media. 3 yrs of interviews & I landed my current position.

Excited for our next StoryWalk featuring A Snow Day for Theo by Amanda Esch-Cormier! A heartwarming tale of a 76-year-old man seeing snow for the first time’s perfect after our own first snow days in a long while. It may have to be indoors due to rain, but it’ll still bring winter magic! #TLBlueSky

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

Our Reading Tent was a hit this year! 🏕️ Students loved cozying up with a good book in our festive, story-filled space. Creating moments of #bookjoy like this makes the media center a magical place to learn and grow. Can’t wait to hopefully bring it back again next year! 📚✨ #TLSky

Anti-book ban legislation has been proposed in Michigan. I had a chance to look at the proposals from the state library association months ago and they're GOOD. Michigan may join several other states in being an anti-book ban leader soon. www.wnem.com/2024/11/13/m...

New state legislation is aiming to standardize how residents can request libraries to remove books and materials.
