relationships are the cornerstone of libraries and participation
CC image via http://goo.gl/3qSaE
CC image via http://www.flickr.com/photos/beth19/4642532960/sizes/l/in/photostream/
library is the shared story of the
human
experience
libraries as communal experiences and “commonplace” texts constructed by participants
CC image via http://goo.gl/6M6GR
CC image via http://www.flickr.com/photos/beataryden/5917683857/sizes/l/in/photostream/
participatory learning is a lens to
help us see the possibilities and
create a context for crafting a shared
vision of library in learning
communities
“It’s all about learning… how is this going to fundamentally enrich a conversation?
There isn’t a part of the library that isn’t about learning. Learning is a collaborative conversation.”
Dr. David Lankes CC image via http://www.flickr.com/photos/marcwathieu/2980385784/sizes/l/in/faves-10557450@N04/

“…participatory teaching methods simply will not work if they do not begin with a deep bond between teacher and student. Importantly, this bond must be built through mutual respect, care, and an ongoing effort to know and understand one another.”

“The future of school libraries and school librarians
hangs in the balance. But the final decision cannot be
made by administrators or school boards alone. It must
be shaped and made by librarians in concert with, and
frankly, at times in opposition to those who hold power
in our schools. We must shape the future not to save
ourselves, our jobs, or some sense of tradition. No, we
win this victory for our students.”
