Please note that the Standard reads 
"adequate, certified/licensed personnel"
Not certified librarian, and that the person filling out the form can check a box confirming they have adequate personnel...
I actually met with someone in NEASC to discuss the terms used and requested it be changed
He told me that many times a visiting team may not even set foot in the LMC...I also asked how to change that!

Respectfully,
B

It's actually a standard that has to be addressed in the report:

Standard 4, Principle 4


All students receive library/information services that support their learning from adequate, certified/licensed personnel.


Obviously the visiting team must address the standard, what's written in the narrative report, and then observe/interview to determine if what the NEASC team has written is accurate and if they've scored themselves accurately.  The visiting team then has to make recommendations or determine if this area is an identified area for improvement.  It is then up to the school/school board/admin to address these issues before the accreditation visit.

Good afternoon, I have a quick question. Are high schools required to have a full-time certified librarian in order to maintain accreditation?  Thanks.

Best regards,
