Doing more research!!!

Have found a paper written by Dianne McKenzie on www.geocitiescom/dimac4/Papers/role_of_teacher_librarian.htm The Dynamic and Unique Role of the Teacher Librarian. This paper written while the author was studying for M.App.Sc in 1999 (updated 2002) is most interesting. It actually may be helping me conceptualise the role of a TL. It puts into perspective the image that most people have of a TL and the reality of the role in the 21st Century. I am going to use this paper to gather my thoughts re the Standards evaluation, amongst other references.
The other peice of information I came across was a letter written in November 2007, to the then Minister of Ed (now Chief Minister and recently reappointed by himself, Min of Ed) (http://asla.org.au/aslant/files/letter_211107.doc.by the president of the NT ASLA, detailing the need to appoint and continue to appoint TLs to schools in the NT. One of the ASLA Standards 3.4 Community Responsibilities is surely at the core of educational needs anywhere but particularly in this end of the country with reference to the need for the development of education in the Indigenous community in a fashion that the Indigenous can relate to. What more appropriate a person to do this than a TL equipped with the skills for ongoing research into the needs of this particular group in our community, to provide information literacy skills learning to assist them in their ability to be part of the wider community?
