Achieve, and American Association of School Librarians. Implementing the Common Core State Standards: The Role of the School Librarian [action brief]. Achieve, 2013.
Online Description
The Common Core State Standards provide an opportunity to realize
systemic change and ensure that American students are held to the same
high expectations in mathematics and literacy as their global peers —
regardless of state or zip code. This Action Brief for school librarians
is a starting point, designed to increase
awareness of the standards, create a sense of urgency around their
implementation, and provide these stakeholders — who are faced with
dramatically increased expectations in the context of fewer resources —
with a deeper understanding of the standards and their role in
implementing the standards. Achieve, in partnership with the American
Association of School Librarians, released this with support from
MetLife Foundation.
This action brief is also available online.
