School Librarianship: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

In this episode we decided to start the year by introducing you to the hosts of this podcast, telling you a little bit about ourselves and our journey within the school library world and why we think this podcast is important. It is probably something we should have done at the beginning but we were just so keen to get started that this seems to have been missed.  We managed to cover quite a bit during our chat, including: The wonderful job a school librarian could have with the right support. The problems that school librarians face. Controversial (what we think needs to happen). What might be coming up next on our podcast.  Here are the links:  FOSIL, Education and School Libraries (7) where Darryl talks about 75% non-fiction. https://www.elizabethahutchinson.com/podcast/episode/adf7b60a/fosil-education-and-school-libraries-7 Non-fiction collections in school libraries: Do we really need them?https://www.elizabethahutchinson.com/podcast/episode/9d8adc04/non-fiction-collections-in-school-libraries-do-we-still-need-them  IFLA School Library Guidelines https://www.ifla.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/assets/school-libraries-resource-centers/publications/ifla-school-library-guidelines.pdf Balancing Act: 5 Time Management Tips for School Librarians Working Alone. https://www.elizabethahutchinson.com/post/balancing-act-5-time-management-tips-for-school-librarians-working-alone  Every school should have a school library https://www.theguardian.com/books/2024/jan/21/every-school-should-have-a-library-philip-pullman-calls-for-new-uk-laws?CMP=share_btn_tw Membership and Training - Engaging and Empowering School  Libraries https://www.elizabethahutchinson.com/aboutmembership
