[CASL-L] Library Mission Statemet

[Earnshaw,Tracy]

Hi Melissa,
Welcome to the library world!  I actually don't have a written mission statement, per se, but if I did, it would look something like this quote I sometimes use with my signature:
"Libraries are no longer "grocery stores" where students can go to pick up ingredients, but "kitchens," where they have the resources necessary to create a finished product." --Joyce Valenza

Hello,

I am currently in the ARCLMS certification program in Hamden and am relatively new to this community. I have found it to be very helpful and informative! At present, I am a classroom teacher of 4/5/6 Social Studies and am in the process of creating a school library from scratch:)

I am hoping that some of you would share your library mission statements with me. My district is working on ours, and I am curious to see some that are already in existence. 

Thanks!!
