  • Full Speed Ahead: Our Leadership Summit Examines the Wildly Changing World of Reading School Libraries Leadership Reading Librarians Educational Technology Library Role Literacy Electronic Publishing Handheld Devices Books Telecommunications The face of reading is changing, and it is happening at a much faster rate than most people had imagined. Where is it all going? What factors are driving the most significant developments? And what role do librarians play in this rapidly evolving world? These are some of the key questions that stakeholders--including educators, publishers, authors, and illustrators--recently sought to answer in Chicago during School Library Journal's 2010 Leadership Summit on the future of reading (October 22-23, 2010). This marked School Library Journal's sixth Leadership Summit--and this year's event was created with support from its platinum sponsor, Capstone, as well as silver sponsors Follett Library Resources, Follett Software Company, Gale Cengage Learning, Junior Library Guild, Mackin, Rosen Publishing, Safari Montage, and Scholastic. This article describes the highlights of this year's event.
