“Like Indiana elementary schools, high schools tend to have better test results where teachers reported initiating collaboration with their library media specialist on the design and delivery of instruction.”
“A study indicated that schools with the best Oregon Statewide Assessment reading and language scores had teachers who were twice as likely to collaborate with school librarians. Furthermore, students in such classes were over 3x more like to visit the school library.”
