As part of the Learning4Life (L4L) plan to implement the Standards for the 21st-Century Learner, this position statement offers specific strategies for school librarians to impact students' school-based and lifelong learning. This article explores some of the skills, dispositions in action, responsibilities, and self-assessments to systematically promote literacy through collection development, integrated literacy events, and collaborative teaching of reading comprehension strategies at all instructional levels and disciplines. As the literacy proficiency required to fully function and contribute significantly to society increases, all educators are called upon to ratchet up students' motivation and engagement to improve reading comprehension.
