Abstract

As I read Nancy's Vision Tour blog and talk with her about her experiences on the road, I cannot help but be reminded of the School Library Journal Summit in Chicago, IL in November 2006. At that event, I had to amazing experience of hearing library consultant and writer Joan Frye Williams's keynote address about possible futures for school libraries. Students, she expressed, entered the school library with three questions in mind: is this my kind of place; can I be successful here; and does this fit into the rest of my life? Her elaboration of these questions has timeless implications for teacher librarians and, in my mind, speaks to the theme of this issue, "School library as space, school library as place."
