Abstract
This modified Delphi study examined the views of the leaders of Australia’s teacher librarian associations on the bookless school library i.e. a library with no printed books or other printed material. Interviews were used to gather data on the participants’ views of what a bookless school library might look like, and what the role of the teacher librarian would be in relation to information literacy and resource creation. Results showed that a bookless school library would contain flexible learning spaces and be a learning commons in the school, which made use of a range of advanced technologies, including interactive walls. The roles of the teacher librarian as information literacy leader and as resource creator would be more important than today.
