Project Title: "School Librarians and Administrators Working Together: A Key to Student Success, Collaborative School Librarian Training (CSLT II)"
There is a demonstrable need for school librarians in the Houston area, especially those trained in collaboration and working with diverse and disadvantaged populations. To help meet this need, the University of Houston-Clear Lake will recruit and educate 30 school librarians with a special emphasis on collaborating with school administrators. With the help of a number of Texas school district partners, the project seeks to attract at least fifteen bilingual students to school librarianship, provide continuing education workshops for principal-librarian teams, and promote the full integration of new technologies into the curriculum.

Information will be posted during the week of February 2:
