Reviews

This book would be an excellent choice for SLMS students or recent graduates who are looking to establish themselves in a school environment. Howard's thorough explanations, real-world examples, and helpful tips make this a great choice for those new to the field; but that does not mean that more established professionals will not find merit in this book, as well. . . . There is a wealth of information contained within that can help professionals bring their media center to lead their school's mission and curriculum. - VOYA
