Next Saturday is the ESSA Workshop!

ISLMA is partnering with RAILS, IHLS, ILA, and the American Association of
School Librarians (AASL) in collaboration with American Library
Association’s Office for Library Advocacy (OLA) and the ALA Washington
Office to offer a comprehensive workshop on the Every Student Succeeds Act
(ESSA). AASL leaders will facilitate the session.

The workshops will:

   - Provide the most current information on developments at the Federal
   level and work through the sections of ESSA that can be directly linked to
   the school librarian/library program.
   - Connect ESSA language to the school librarian’s role.
   - Discuss current state work with recommendations for opportunities at
   state and local levels to ensure the effective school library program’s
   language in ESSA.

This hands-on session will aid in identifying stakeholders, building
coalitions, message crafting and elevator speech development. While the
content will be directly related to ESSA, the tools and exercise portion is
advocacy for positioning school librarians in general as leaders for
teaching and learning.

Register to attend the free ESSA Workshop for 3 PDH (Professional
Development Hours) on Saturday, September 24th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
