This document discusses the role of school librarians and school library systems in supporting student achievement through the Common Core Learning Standards. It provides examples of how school librarians help students develop research, writing, speaking, and literacy skills. School librarians are shown leading activities like author visits, research projects, technology workshops, and discussions to engage students in inquiry-based learning. Studies have found that well-staffed school libraries are linked to higher test scores. New York held a library summit to develop a plan for ensuring students have access to strong school library programs.

Libraries are part of Common Core http://www.nysl.nysed.gov/libdev/commoncore/13lib_cc.htm • Inquiry and inquiry-based learning are embedded throughout the Common Core and form the foundation of the type of learning libraries support best: thinking creatively, problem solving, information searching, and the use of technology. • The Common Core encourages flexible communication and collaboration. Libraries are the ideal vehicle for this as they connect communities – children, teachers, parents.

School Librarians Impact Inquiry We have a big awards ceremony each year where the kids choose their favorite books from various categories. It is very motivating for the students because they want to read all of the books nominated so they can vote for their favorites. We call it "The Burnies".
