ONLINE LEARNIG AND TEACHER-LIBRARIAN COLLABORATION

    This article gives a great general overview of what online learning is in today's world and the concept of teacher librarian collaboration.  It also touches on librarians developing resources as program administrators and information specialists. 

"In contrast, when a school librarian plans, develops, and delivers an online course, he or she is an instructional partner and a teacher from the very beginning of the process to the very end." (2014)

The authors also offer a simplified 'plan' for online instruction.

"Digital library learning spaces offer a dizzying array of options for school librarian to partner and collaborate with students and teachers, promoting student learning across the curriculum like never before."  "...fully online library courses into the school library program will pay off in increased student engagement and achievement."
