FYI, in case you missed the announcement from AASL and want to share about the opportunity.
Hi,
AASL, in partnership with Bound to Stay Bound Books, has created kits for district-level staff to offer professional development about theNational School Library Standards. From
the press
release:
…Fifty kits will be available in 2019 and fifty kits will be distributed in 2020 through
an application process. For more information and to apply, please visit standards.aasl.org/kit_request…
Each kit includes materials to support the facilitation of seven hours of professional
development. These materials include a facilitator handbook, all necessary handouts, a National School Library Standards Card Game, and $50 grant for refreshments and
