Literacy Information

There is a call for proposals for the 44th Annual International Conference and 17th International Forum on Research in School Librarianship (IASL conference), which will be held June 28- July 2, 2015, in Maastricht, The Netherlands. The title of the conference is: The school library rocks: living it, learning it, loving it. The main themes are:
- The school library as a space and place: meeting, sharing, discussing. Collaborative learning and growing.
- The school library as learning environment: 24/7 access to materials, resources, teachers, electronic learning environment and more.
- The school library as laboratory: experience and discovery in science, arts and media‐education.
- The school library as a window to the world: reading, writing and communication.
