Some of that rewriting naturally happens in the library. Many of the students have experiences at multiple schools, but it is not until they come to the author's school that many of them become frequent library users for the first time. To help build inclusive libraries where all students -- especially the most vulnerable students -- are both centered and cherished, the #LibFive was born. The #LibFive is student-led professional development for librarians that the author was privileged to create with three amazing eighth-graders. The #LibFive: Five Key Foundations for Building Inclusive Libraries are--(1) See me! Listen to me; (2) Show me on the shelves and walls. Read those books yourself; (3) Graphic novels and manga are not extra; (4) Show the joy in our stories; and (5) Make the school library a sorting free zone. The work done on the #LibFive was based on key scholarship, action-based research, and student wisdom. According to the author, when librarians are there for their students, when librarians are building spaces that serve as incubators of both joy and belonging, it is a kind of bravery. |
