Wondering how to manage your school library career while still doing a great job for your students, teachers, and learning community? One way is to take advantage of smart opportunities to grow your professional expertise while also building your community of colleagues and your own career visibility. Helping you accomplish all three goals, the new online School Library Connection (SLC) provides not only an extensive learning resource center for school library professionals but also opportunities for you to share your own knowledge.

This webinar explored the newly launched School Library Connection and learn how it can help you enhance your all-important “professional equity” – the primary component critical to building a resilient school librarian career.

Recommended for school librarians at all levels, this live, interactive event will help you:

• Understand professional equity is, and how to increase yours.
• Discover resources such as videos, workshops, columns, and articles to help you deliver cutting-edge support for your students, teachers, and administration.
• Find the information you need to grow your professional expertise (and career opportunities) in the two core areas vital to career growth: organization and management and instructional leadership.
• Position yourself as an information “key resource” within your school environment through the School Library Connection’s “Library in Context” focus on innovative programs and solutions.
• Learn how to build your career opportunities as effectively as you build great student programs – the best kind of multitasking!

Learn how to expand your career and provide recognized value to your students and learning communities.
