Welcome!
I am pleased to have the opportunity to welcome you to my website so that you may obtain insights into the commitments which drive my practice. A program that aligns with New York State Learning Standards, ALA Standards for 21st Century Learning and Information Power supports students in their roles today and prepares them for using information in the future. The terms for this proficiency, "Information Literacy" is pivotal to successful library instruction. Literature and resource rich school libraries are the foundations for motivating readers and information seekers to develop not only traditional literacy skills but a fondness for discovery, the courage to seek self empowerment and a love for the written word and what knowledge it can provide.
The ability to provide venues for students to work with information in a way that aligns with their current roles is critical. Central to my vision is that it is imperative to teach students to become life-long learners. I teach students the skills, and help them develop the dispositions, that enable them to retrieve information, conduct inquiry, engage their analytical abilities and create knowledge that supports growth and independence.
