Think like an entrepreneur ... What message do your
students/teachers/administrators need to hear in order to bridge the perception gap?
Your Task
Use the conversations we’ve had to create a poster that might bridge that gap. What is your manifesto about your relationship to student learning?
Need a starting point? Consider these poster titles:
“What Your Library Can Do For You”“What You Can Expect From Your School Library” “We Can Help You Learn By ____________”
