Emailed my school librarian to ask if she can come to my classes to help teach info literacy. She cannot. Emailed my admin to ask for more librarians. This will not go anywhere, but god fucking damnit.

Rages with you! Also: can you leverage a grant to have an ISchool student design a program that you can implement in your classroom?

Cannot, or will not? And could you take your class to her? If Muhammad will not come to the mountain….

Unfortunately, middle school librarians don't have a library TA, which means that any time which would usually be spent collaborating ) is spent checking out, re-shelving, processing orders, etc. Partnering with multiple content areas just can't be done with one person running the whole library.
