This week Craig is joined by Shannon Miller who will be leading a discussion on Back to School in the Library.
Shannon is a world renowned and recognised teacher librarian with a twitter following of 44,000. She is the go-to girl for everything Library related and speaks across the world. It is an absolute honour to have her co-hosting #whatisschool with me today.
In this week’s #whatisschool chat, Shannon Miller will share insight on the importance of setting up a library loving culture at the start of the new school year.
The school library and the teacher librarians within these wonderful spaces have so many things to offer students, teachers, parents, and school communities as school starts and throughout the year. Join us for #whatisschool to discuss lots of ideas, events, tools and events to put into play this year within your library and school community.
