Administration is a key component in creating a highly effective school library and teacher librarian. To help us understand why you are recommending your teacher librarian, we want to give you the opportunity to share why they are worthy of the leadership credential. Below you will answer questions and give input with examples of how your teacher librarian is highly effective in this area.

The teacher librarian is viewed as a leader by administrators, staff, and community. The teacher librarian works in partnership with the principal and administrative staff to help all learners in the school community (staff, students, administrators, parents) grow and thrive. As a result, the administration supports the vision/direction of the teacher librarian by providing adequate funding for materials to meet the diverse needs of a wide variety of learners. If the library position is staffed by a highly effective teacher, the administration recognizes the need for support staff to manage the library day-to-day operations.

Tammy Langeberg, the HESTL Coordinator, may contact you to collect more evidence or with questions about the information you provided.
