According to the Canadian Library Association (CLA)…
…the focus of the library program in the past was on building strong collections of resources and assisting users to find and use them effectively, the goal now is to build learning communities and make connections among learners, thus facilitating knowledge creation in the school community.

CLA acknowledges the reality might be different…
Our school libraries should reflect our common values of equity, diversity and cultural identity as well as the best approaches in the educational and library professions. They should be contextually relevant to student need and success…
