The changing
role for school library programs provides resources for students
to create a community of lifelong learners. Three roles of school
librarians help to promote this program: The learning and teaching
role which supports the instructional goals of the school; the
information access role which is the traditional role of the
school librarian; and the program administrator which provides for
the management of the program and provides training for members.
