Hello!

The standards book which includes all three components to the new standards (Learner Competencies, School Librarian Competencies, and School Library Alignments) are only available via the book.  The Learner Framework that Ariel found is really great too and a good place to get started!  

The website for the standards has a lot of resources on it that you can look over standards.aasl.org as well.  In particular, the documents below are good to start digging into the learner competencies:​

CASL is hoping to organize some roundtables in the near future throughout the state to start some conversations about the new standards and give those of us who attended AASL a chance to share what we have learned!!

Hi-

Has anyone seen the new National School Library standards from AASL online? for free? I can only find the book for sale from ALA ($199!).
