	School Library Journal Statistics
		But the increase seems to have done more to help libraries expand their electronic resources than to update book collections, according to our most recent biennial survey of school library expenditures and resources.
		The data show that the average school library budget is up $1,000 from two years ago, and that media specialists are enjoying higher salaries than ever- increases of as much as $4,000 a year for those working at the junior high/middle school level.
		If you're a school library media specialist who manages a large number of services for students and teachers, you probably also have more money for resources compared to your colleagues who manage fewer services.

	NCEF Resource List: Library and Media Center Design--K-12
		Schools are demanding new library configurations that differ both from the old model and from the libraries that look to the latest technological innovations to meet their educational goals.
		Discussion about planning for school libraries focuses on the first phase, called preplanning or programming, which involves determining the motivation for building or renovating; needs assessments; considering the role of the library; giving users questionnaires to solicit their opinions; workflow patterns; and cost estimates that include furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
		School designs discussed include a technology-rich library for an independent Norfolk school, a high school that is a model of energy efficiency and environmental responsibility, and a context-driven solution for a religious study center in Charlottesville.

	Weeding the Library Media Center Collections (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Gone must be the static conception of the library as a storage organ, and in its place we must conceive of the library as a dynamic circulatory system, a channel through which books pass on their way from the publisher to the incinerator.
		Because so much of the weeding process is based on the school curriculum and on how teachers implement curriculum as well as on specific interests of faculty and students in a particular school, typical advice to new media specialists is to not weed in the first year in a building.
		Library media specialists must be sensitive to accuracy in portrayals of racial, ethnic, gender, and disability issues in their collections.

		Library media specialists are experts in integrating the use of information resources with the curriculum, providing reading guidance, and motivating students to read.

		With the current emphasis on information literacy skills and technology integration in school libraries and classrooms, finding time to promote reading and a love of books is difficult for teacher-librarians.
		The 21st century climate of privatization, media conglomeration, cutting of teacher librarian positions and other threats to libraries, censorship and self censorship, impermanent and restricted access to purchased electronic records, academic freedom, and human security indicates the need for our increased awareness, understanding, and advocacy of the core library values “intellectual freedom” and “social responsibility".
		Contributions to this SLIC issue prompt us to be mindful of the historical, political, social, legal, and economic contexts of information and resources used both formally and informally, both consciously and unconsciously, in schools and libraries.
