contents Today's Youth's Voice on How They View Reading and What "Counts" Smith, Karen E. Reading Habits Reading Interests School Libraries Library Role Change Strategies Student Interests Preferences Lifelong Learning Student Attitudes Elementary Secondary Education With the changes in school library spaces and school librarians' roles, there has never been a more extraordinary time to be a librarian. However, one thing will never change even in these dynamic times; librarians are still the driving force behind strong reading programs and fostering that love of reading. How do librarians create a culture of readers without driving them away? This article shares the perspectives of students who discuss how to create a culture of readers without driving them away. Most students surveyed attribute being a reader to being encouraged by a person, not a program. The students also discuss what "counts" as reading. After hearing the students' perspectives, the author realized that maybe some schools already "have" a reading culture and librarians just have not seen it and should start looking through the lens of a student's perspective more often. Librarians are encouraged to take the opportunity to change how they view reading.
