Abstract
There are many school library activities that can be planned and implemented collaboratively with classroom teachers or be designed as library-only activities to build students’ self-confidence, develop responsible citizens, and improve students’ interpersonal skills. A survey was conducted to determine which activities were planned and implemented by twenty school librarians to develop these life skills and to determine four hundred students’ perception of the impact of these activities in the development of these life skills. The findings show that the activities implemented in these school libraries made a positive impact on the target life skills for the majority of students. However, it was discovered that certain important activities were not implemented by some school librarians and that a collaborative approach was not always used in the planning and implementation processes.
