The members of School Library Leaders (SLL's), are pleased to announce a web-based service where school librarians are welcome to pose questions or problems they have encountered. These will be reviewed by the team and answered as quickly as possible. In some instances, possible solutions may be suggested from a variety of perspectives given the team's widely varying backgrounds in school librarianship.<br><br>SLL’s includes the following contributors: Susan D. Ballard; Cassandra G. Barnett; Dr. Audrey P. Church; Sharon Coatney; Dr. Gail K. Dickinson; Carl A. Harvey II; Dr. M. Ellen Jay; Sara Kelly Johns; Kathryn Roots Lewis; Ann M. Martin; Leslie B. Preddy; Harriet S. Selverstone; Dr. Barbara Stripling; and Dr. E. Blanche Woolls.<br><br>The National Collaborative for Digital Equity (NCDE) is honored to host the group and will be collaborating with them on a number of other initiatives to build the capacity of school librarians to become local systemic digital inclusion leaders. <br clear="all"></div><div class="ydp6b12cbafyiv8350981486gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:large;"><br></div><div class="ydp6b12cbafyiv8350981486gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:large;"><br></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="ydp6b12cbafyiv8350981486gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#073763"><b>Christy Semande</b></font><div><font color="#073763"><b>President 2020-2021</b><br><b>Cell: 309.221.5609</b></font></div><div><font color="#073763"><b><br></b></font><div><img src="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1jbF7CbwGFkfIXQdlsVtYwajcAxiC4uW7&revid=0B5SPyOVvojddbDVlajNCNnpaMlp1OEI1VVJwUll2NUl3R3RZPQ" width="72" height="96" data-inlineimagemanipulating="true" class=""> <img src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1IgukvYf2o7uAQMVbhmdjlydtSEkMJYVT&export=download" data-inlineimagemanipulating="true" class="" style="width: 200px; max-width: 0px;"> </div><div><div><span></span><span></span><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>MAILMAN_MIMEDEFANG<br>_______________________________________________<br>AISLE mailing list<br><a href="mailto:AISLE@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AISLE@list.railslibraries.info</a><br><br>For list archives and subscription options, visit:<br><a href="http://list.railslibraries.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aisle" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://list.railslibraries.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aisle</a><br><br>To unsubscribe, send a message to:<br><a href="mailto:aisle-leave@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">aisle-leave@list.railslibraries.info</a><br><br><a href="https://www.aisled.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.aisled.org/</a></div>
