“No Sweat” Ms P

"I touch the future;
I teach."
(Christa McCauliffe)

The best of all things is to learn. Money can be lost or stolen, health and strength may fail, but what you have committed to your mind is yours forever.
(The Walking Drum
by Louis L'Amour)

Nuggets of Wisdom

The students who pass through our doors are the most important reason we are school librarians. If we keep students and Library Lessons as priorities, everything else will fall into place.
(Ms. P)

Kids have a long attention span, but a low tolerance for boredom.

The rigor in our school library should be content in the materials, not finding the materials; the challenge needs to be the academic purpose for which we have a school library, not in using the library. (Ms P)

Knowledge not shared remains unknown.
(Luigi Lemoncello)

If you communicate an idea in a way that resonates, you can change the world.
(Nancy Duarte)

What a school thinks about its library is a measure of what it thinks about education.
(Harold Howe former US Commissioner of Education)
