- Librarians/Media Specialists: Unsung Superheroes Burgess, Jan Media Specialists School Libraries Librarians Principals Administrator Role Interpersonal Relationship Library Services Collegiality School librarians can be an important resource for school administrators, provided that the right relationship is in place between them. In this article, the author reports on the critical points emphasized with librarians/media specialists in a recent panel presentation on their changing roles: (1) the importance of building ongoing relationships with administrators and teachers to support student learning; (2) the value of formal and informal communication with administrators; (3) the importance of informing teachers and parents regularly about library programs and services in ways that shine the light on the positive teaching and learning curriculum connections; and (4) the competing priorities and values beyond building-level control when it comes to resources and personnel. The article closes with a list of questions administrators can use to evaluate their librarian/media specialist and their knowledge about the library.
