Leah,
The book Information Power is the best resource to use for ALA's library
standards. However, if you're in a time crunch, ALA's website provides a
good overview from several of the chapters:
http://www.ala.org/ala/aasl/aaslproftools/informationpower/informationpower.htm.
Further down on the page it also gives some of AASL resource guides and the
Standards & Guidelines link gives some specific state standards for school
libraries. I hope this link goes through...

Subject: ALA Standards
I have been asked to supply a copy of the American Library Association
standards and to show how our library meets those standards. I am having
trouble
locating such a document. I called the ALA and was referred to their web
site. I searched the web site and have found references to standards but
no
listing of standards. I also found a different phone number to call at ALA
but
they did not know how to help me.
Any suggestions?
Does a list of ALA standards exist?
This is very frustrating.
Thank you, in advance, for all your help.
