Why you need your school/ teacher librarian

Kimberly Shearer, an English teacher at Boone County High School, was named the 2012 Teacher of the Year on Oct. 18, 2011. During her year-long reign, Shearer is writing a monthly column for Kentucky Teacher that chronicles her experiences as a classroom teacher and as Kentucky Teacher of the Year.
Enjoy her latest post: Why you need your school librarian.

The article: Librarians Can Influence Schools Through Professional Development outlines the even wider educational sphere teacher librarians can affect.
