from The Literacy Teacher's Life · host Elizabeth Morphis

It's National Library Week! It's a great week to get involved and support your local library. Libraries are a reflection of the community they serve. You can check out new books and see what other events are happening at your library this week. On today's episode, American Library Association's President-Elect Sam Helmick joins me. We discuss what is happening with libraries at the moment. We also discuss National Library Week and how and why you should check-out your library this week. Sam also discusses the upcoming National Conference which is taking place this coming June in Philadelphia. As always, it will be an engaging event. We finish with Sam talking about how parents and teachers can support students with reading as we are heading into the summer months.
