E205: The Role of the Library in Fostering Research Skills

4:30 p.m. - 5:15 p.m.

Margaux DelGuidice-Calemmo, Teacher-Librarian, Garden City High School, Garden City, N.Y.

Learn how school librarians can use their information literacy training to help implement a mandate for research across all curriculum areas and grade levels. The end goal is not only to make students “college and career ready,” but to make research an innate process that engages students, helping them to take ownership of their learning. The basic tenants and principals are discussed and expanded upon with Margaux providing hands-on tips and tools for attendees looking to implement, or expand, a research program.
