Summarizing the four major state academic achievement studies for an audience of administrators, boards, or parents? This publication provides three readymade presentations. Scripts, handouts, overhead transparencies plus expanded information on the LMC Source web site provide an easy-to-use presentation ready to go. New handouts for each additional state, Keith LanceÕs White House speech, and other features have been added. New research on why clerks alone in library media centers do not raise achievement have been added. The presentations emphasize the needed commitments a school district must make, the collaborative and leadership activities a school library media staff must make, and summarize the amount of impact on achievement that can be expected when the library media program is well developed. A must publication for every library media specialist and leader!
