School librarian image: What it is and what to do about it… Wendy Stephens Buckhorn High School New Market, Ala. @wsstephens wstephens at madison.k12.al.us
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our image problem is real
Show students learning….
… not us posing…
… or looking bored or superfluous.
 
Never let them photograph the library without students in the picture...
 
 
Be psychic
Delight in the fixed schedule
Get a guru
(or,  better yet, gurus)
Introduce your faculty and students to new technologies
Learn the local technologies
Advocate for student-owned hardware
Keep a finger in every pie
Reading is social
Reading is social
 
Reading is social
 
 
Read more than ever
 
 
Let readers drive acquisitions
 
and programming
Recommender systems include human systems
 
Fake it
and fresh required reading options
Admit the fallibility of print.
Realize advocacy  fatigue exists
Provide opportunities
Help redefine abilities
