School Library Month is a national observance sponsored by the American Association of School Librarians, a division of the American Library Association, and school libraries across the country.

Alameda Unified School District’s (AUSD) certificated teacher librarians provide the leadership and expertise necessary to ensure that the school library is an integral part or the instructional program and school community.

AUSD’s school libraries provide a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment that empowers students to be lifelong readers, critical thinkers, inquisitive learners, and respectful and responsible citizens.

AUSD's teacher librarians promote safe, responsible, and ethical use of information and technology; and encourage creativity, communication, and collaboration within the learning community.

Tonight, teacher librarians Erin Head (Paden Elementary), Marianne Dilworth (Maya Lin School), and Alex Velasquez (Ruby Bridges Elementary) will in attendance to read the resolution to the Board. Teacher librarian Paizley Spencer (Love Elementary) will be in the audience to support her colleagues.
