DESCRIPTION
Presented by Kathleen Galarza and Renee Rogers at the NJASL 2013 Fall Conference, October 5, 2013. Join Kathleen and Renee as they share simple strategies and unexpected sources to take your school library from drab to fab with little to no budget. See dramatic school library transformations through before and after pictures. Learn simple strategies that not only changed the way the libraries looked, but also improved the ways the libraries (and the librarians!) were perceived and used by the school communities.
