The ALA Washington Office will be submitting comments to the Department of Education and HHS (Health & Human Services) on literacy and parent engagement. They have received comments from the public library side of ALA but would love to include examples of school librarians doing parental engagement, participating in parent programs, or anything else around the issue.
If you, or someone in your area, has an example of some great parental engagement within a school library program please send to acline@ala.org as soon as possible. The comments are due on January 4th and so we need to get to the ALA Washington Office no later than December 28th.
Please include:
- What has been done
- Location
- Name of librarian
Thanks so much! Happy Holidays, Allison
