After ten years as a regular elementary classroom teacher, I'll be a
Library Media Specialist at a preK-5 school in the fall.  I'll see each
class once a week on a fixed schedule.

I have seen four books that I think look helpful, but I'd like to get
some feedback from LMSs that have actually used them before I buy them
myself (please, no contacts from publishers or vendors).  The first book
is Skills for Life:  Information Literacy for Grades K-6, 2nd ed.,
Christine allen, editor, published by Linworth.  The second one is
Developing an Information Literacy Program K-12, developed by the Iowa
City Community School District and edited by Mary Jo Langhorne,
published by Neal-Schuman, and it includes a CD-ROM.

The other two books are also published by Neal-Schuman:  The Storytime
Sourcebook: A compendium of ideas and resources for storytellers, 2nd
ed., by Carolyn N. Cullum and A storytime Year:  A month-to-month kit
for preschool programming by Susan Dailey.  I do have three years
experience working with preschoolers and have had experience with
storytelling and puppetry.

I would also appreciate other recommendations for professional books
that you've found indispensible for your teaching (again, no salespeople
please--I really want to know what professionals are using).

I'll post a hit.  Thanks!
