School librarians are uniquely qualified to select books.

Certified librarians are certified teachers that have completed extra advanced coursework to have a school library media endorsement added to their teaching licenses. Many earn full Masters's Degrees in Library Science.

School librarians take graduate-level course in library collection development.

School librarians have also taken classes on child development, educational psychology, readers' advisory, and school library management. They are the best people in the school to select books for the library. They also recognize that not every book is for every child and will work with parents to help them make great choices for THEIR children.

So much misinformation has been spread about school librarians and school libraries. Here are some facts.
