A school library built around student visibility

Julia Stivers frames the school library as more than a collection of books: it is also a space and a set of programs that can recognize and celebrate students. The book addresses pressures named in its description—including budget cuts, book challenges, and expanding job responsibilities—and connects those challenges with practical questions about collections, spaces, and programming. Its focus on how libraries can respond gives the subject a clear professional scope, centered on the conditions and choices involved in making students feel represented within school library life.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • School librarians considering how to shape collections, spaces, and programs
