With new variants of the virus emerging, the coming months and years may be more of a game of whack-a-mole as the country tries to conquer some versions of the virus and others pop up. Unfortunately, some experts predict that pandemic-era workarounds may be for years (Scudellari 2020). A school librarian's interactions with students, teachers, and administrators might be socially distanced off and on for some time, but there are still ripe opportunities to influence teaching and learning. Many librarians viewed their work performance over the last year and a half through what they did not accomplish and not what they did. This article's goal is to help them refocus and prioritize impactful activities.
