Dame, Melvina Azar Cooperation Elementary Secondary Education English (Second Language) Librarians Library Collections Library Role Literacy Multicultural Education School Community Relationship Second Language Instruction Second Language Learning Spanish Speaking This digest discusses ways that the school librarian in one high school fostered a positive environment in the school library for English-as-a-Second-Language students and broadened the role of the school library in effecting literacy experiences for these students. The digest addresses how one school librarian made the library a welcoming place for ESL students, the establishment of a collection materials for these students, library resources available for both ESL and content teachers, library collaboration with agencies outside of the school, multicultural activities, and a literacy activity for native Spanish speaking students learning English and native-English speaking students learning Spanish.
