Bailey, Rachel
Fontichiaro, K. (2012). Informational
text. School Library Monthly, 29(1),
51-52.
Summary: This article
addresses how school librarians can prepare the library to align with the
common core state standards. Weeding is stressed so new narrative informational
text can replace old, outdated nonfiction. Other ideas include advertising
online databases, giving teachers pointers for classroom book collections and
using instructional strategies to help students interact with the text.
Evaluation: I like how practical this article is.
For example, it recommends posting annotated bibliographies of new library
books in the teacher bathroom stalls as an alternative to sending such
information via teacher’s already overloaded email accounts.
