Abstract

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) initiative for K–12 education has been adopted by 45 states and will have a broad impact on American educational institutions, including libraries. The CCSS focus on close reading of informational texts, inquiry learning, and college and career readiness with an emphasis on assessment and accountability. This research study used a focus-group approach to provide a framework for asking school librarians from two states about the future of teaching and learning and the types of challenges they envision for the future. The data collected were then aligned with CCSS to better understand the potential impact for patrons of all types of libraries.
