Leadership in the Library

Library leadership in the public school setting is my major focus. Library media specialists should lead in these three areas: technology, curriculum, and library media program administration. I'm reading and learning about these topics.

Leading in Technology

Technology is just one area where school library media specialists must lead. I've just been reading about blogging, especially educational blogging. This is a completely new concept for me. However, as a former library media specialist, it would be my responsibility (although not my responsibility alone) to investigate this learning tool: how does it work--not technically-speaking, what do teachers/students know about blogs, what might its uses be as a learning tool and as an instructional tool, how could it be integrated into the classroom setting, does it have knowledge-building capabilities that fit into the curriculum? And on and on the questions could go.
