contents Developing a Culture of Readers through Effective Library Planning Wejrowski, Kay McRae, Mat Library Development Library Services Reading Improvement Reading Habits School Libraries Librarian Teacher Cooperation Organizational Objectives Curriculum Enrichment Organizational Change Change Strategies Library Role Educational Improvement High Schools In this article, the authors describe how they created a school library that is the center of learning in their school community with the collaborative vision of the principal (Mat McRae) and the school librarian (Kay Wejrowski) and the support of their entire staff. For eight years, McRae and Wejrowski have worked together as principal and school librarian at Swan Valley High School in Saginaw, Michigan. Through professional development for teachers, modeling of best practices, an inviting collection, and a welcoming atmosphere, their library has become a place where learning is centered, where imaginations are stretched, where information is sought, and problems are solved. Most of all, it is a place where everyone belongs, and readers emerge.
