GEN: From the classroom into the library

[Jan Sullivan <JanNws@AOL.COM>]

Is it my imagination or are there LOTS more posts these days from current
classroom teachers working towards library degrees?  Is this due to the
increasing number of library openings out there, or has this always been the
case and I've just never noticed it?  I had a former colleague once tell me
that "Of course, librarians who are originally classroom teachers are taken
more seriously than those who are not!"  I've always been bothered by that
remark.  Just pondering, I guess, and would welcome your comments...
