This question could apply to elem., middle, or sec.  I have
been doing some reading on the role of library specialists in
curriculum development.  Several authors state that we should
take on leadership roles in this area and be a key player in
the development of curriculum for all subject areas.  However,
several school librairans feel that they may not have the
expertise in every subject to play this role.  They feel they
should help empliment the curriculum after it has been
established.  I throw this question out to all of you.  Should
we be curriculum leaders or supporters?

Sorry I don't have a fancy footnote to my messages!  I'm still
a novice at this!

Thanks for your responses.
