[CASL-L] School Library Program Strategic Plans

[Kerry Darby]

Hi everyone,

Back in July, I requested information about school library strategic plans.  Some of you were interested in the results.  Here is a list of resources (books, articles, and examples of strategic plans) that I found useful.  I am in the process of creating a strategic plan for my library.  I am attaching an outline and timeline of the steps I am following to create the plan.  Please let me know if you have other questions.

Kerry and Melissa,

I think this could turn into a great resource and would like to see any of the responses you get also.  Probably many LMS would.  Would one of you mind compiling the results in some way?

Katie

serve
 grades 4-8 and would also be interested in seeing different
strategic plans!
