[quote=Anonymous]While I would argue that there is a benefit to having a library at every school, and especially, a librarian on staff, with their in depth knowledge of appropriate resources and their ability to focus on informational literacy with students, I agree that "number of books in a schools' central library" is not by itself an indicator of success. Still there is clearly a great need here. The difference between having access to 300 books and 28,000 books is staggering. The OP asked for suggestions on how to support the libraries, but if the PP would prefer to focus his or her efforts on classroom libraries or giving books directly to kids for them read (and keep) at home, there's room for work in that area too. All of these things are going to help kids![/quote]
