It doesn’t necessarily reflect the specific needs of individual schools that librarians may be required to meet. But keep in mind that this is generalized. The American Association of School Librarians ( AASL) has a sample job description that can shed some insight into the life of a school librarian. What Do School Librarians Do?ĭo you know the answer to this question? If the thought of a school librarian stirs up visions of a stern-looking, glasses-wearing, “shusher” sitting behind the desk in the school library, scolding students about late returns before slowly pushing a dusty, creaking cart of books to reshelve the returns all day long, I have to say– this is not what it means to be a school librarian today. Before we look at ways school leaders and educators can show appreciation, let’s look at the job of the school librarian. So, it’s a great month to rally your school community to express it! I mean, every day is a great day to show your school librarian that you respect, value, and appreciate them and their work, but April is a great month to take your school library advocacy up a notch. Do you respect, value, and appreciate your school librarian or library media specialist? Well, April is School Library Month, April 3-9 is National Library Week, and April 4 is National School Librarian Day.
