  • How Do Decision-Makers Become Library Media Advocates? Hartzell, Gary Elementary Secondary Education Professional Associations Media Specialists Library Services Librarians School Libraries Advocacy Librarian Teacher Cooperation Administrators In this article, the author describes his path to library advocacy. It resulted from several youthful experiences, favorable professional associations, and an unexpected invitation shortly after he left K-12 education for the university. The author believes that it is a good idea to get more librarians to consider going into administration. Building- and district-level administrators who were once librarians are more likely to: (1) protect library budgets and staffing; (2) encourage administrators to support library media programs; (3) encourage teacher/library media specialist collaboration; (4) be more effective than most administrators in evaluating library programs and librarians; and (5) influence other administrators and board members.
