Intro

Welcome to the SD57 Learning Commons Teacher-Librarian effective practice guide. 

How to use this guide:

1. Read it in the traditional way, working from top to bottom in the menu

3. *NEW* Use our chat bot (SD57 Login required) to ask questions and find what you need to know, fast.

As you explore this guide you will be learning about library learning commons and effective practice built from the collective experience of SD57, BC and Canadian teacher-librarians. We are proud members and supporters of Canadian School Libraries and BC Teacher-Librarian Association and we hope you will join us in contributing to these communities of practice.
