| contents | Aligning Experiences: Comparing and Contrasting K12 and Post-Secondary Space, Resources, and Services to Smooth the College Transition Lewis, Zachary Mathuews, Katy B. School Libraries Librarians Academic Libraries College Readiness Orientation Library Instruction Information Literacy Alignment (Education) Library Facilities Library Services Library Role Rural Schools Low Income Students In this study, researchers used basic qualitative research to understand the spaces, resources, and services available to K12 students in their school libraries. Using observation and semi-structured interviews with K12 teacher librarians, this research allowed for a comparison of the K12 and post-secondary environments through which the authors were able to identify similarities and differences in function and service. In this article, the authors explore strategies to ease the transition of K12 students to the college environment, including collaboration between post-secondary and K12 libraries, robust orientation programs, and alignment of information literacy initiatives. This article adds to the body of college readiness literature and suggests avenues for future research. |
