Description

The PSESD Teacher-Librarian Institute is sure to be a place where you will gain readiness and inspiration for the 2018-19 school year! This year's Institute will provide support in creating culturally responsive libraries with an emphasis on providing accurate and honoring literature about and for Native American children and families’ history and culture.

The day will focus on:

Heart: Create a space where participants are able to engage, reflect, and challenge their racial beliefs and attitudes.

Head: Provide rich authentic culturally responsive content that builds librarians capacity to assess accurate asset-based information and tools for all children and families. Examine culturally responsive practices recommended in the new library standards.

Hands: Provide librarians resources and strategies to strengthen and sustain their growth and practice.
