The Illinois School Library Media Association has updated their I-SAIL (Illinois 
Standards Aligned Instruction  for Libraries) to correlate with the Common Core 
Standards that our state has adopted.

The link for the I-SAIL is at http://islma.org/ISAIL.htm

According to the School Improvement Network (http://www.schoolimprovement.com),  
New York State's Common Core resources are the best of any other state's. I am  
curious about what your states are doing for you, and is there anything specific  
for librarians? What are the URLs of your state's Common Core resources  
toolkits?  "This Common Core Standards resource provides the following:   * A 
series of Common Core resource videos, which describes some of the most  
important Common Core Standards in depth  * The Standards guide for textbook 
publishers, that directs them as they  produce Common Core Standards aligned 
material  * A CCSS timeline that outlines the “scope and sequence” for New 
York’s Common  Core implementation, beginning summer 2011 and ending in 2015. 
This is specific  to New York, but since the state is at least a year ahead of 
many others in   implementation it offers a very nice Common Core Standards 
resource with what  could be a useful template for other states to follow  * 
Examples of curriculum to use in your classroom  * A Common Core resource 
describing what New York is calling the “Common Core  Instructional Shifts”: 6 
“instructional shifts” that need to  be made to achieve  Common Core 
implementation  * The “Tri-State Quality Review Rubric and Rating Process”: a 
rubric that you  can use to measure how well your lessons align to the Common 
Core Standards  * A guide to creating text dependent questions around the Common 
Core  Standards."  http://engageny.org/

Denison, Boston Globe  Getting information off the Internet is like taking a 
drink from a fire hydrant.  - Mitchell Kapor  To save man from the morass of 
propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief  aims of education. Education 
must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to  discern the true from the false, 
the real from the unreal, and the facts from  the fiction ... The function of 
education, therefore, is to teach one to think  intensively and to think 
critically. - Martin Luther King, Jr. The Purpose of  Education
