VISION FOR THE LIBRARY MEDIA CENTER

    To become effective information users students must have frequent opportunities to handle all kinds of information. The library media specialist and learning leaders will form a partnership in the implementation of information literacy in all the curriculum areas. The Library Media Center is viewed as an extension of the classroom. 

• Major Research Units: After collaborative planning, the learning leaders facilitate the Information Literacy Process with learners. 
• Mini Units: Planned mini-lessons are correlated with the curriculum at the point of need. 
• Access to the Library: The Library Media Center is not scheduled weekly for visits from any class, but all classes have multiple opportunities each week to send individuals or small groups. Class visits are planned in advance with the library media specialist.
• Library Schedule: The library is open to Caldwell students and the community Monday - Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
