Need of a coordinator for librarians

I have always been surprised that each 'department' in our school has a coordinator who specializes in that field - well, every department except mine. We fall under the auspices of the person who handles the federal funding - whomever it may be from year to year.

I am not saying that the individual does a bad job. I am not saying they do not try to do their best. I am saying that they have no idea of what librarianship entails and so we get shortchanged occasionally. Their aren't many of us in our district so I do understand why they haven't hired a coordinator but might I suggest one of the librarians with an MLS or who has the experience to provide appropriate guidance, support, and professional development required of librarians.

  • The bad autocorrect. I did not catch the typos before. Ouch!
