[LM_NET] SHARE: School libraries research in Ontario, Canada

[Louise Gorvett <Louise.Gorvett@WCDSB.EDU.ON.CA>]

Hello LM_NETters

 

Just thought I'd share a new study released today in Ontario (Canada)
showing (surprise, surprise) a positive link between school libraries
and students' reading achievement.  This study was commissioned by the
Ontario Library Association.

 

The news release regarding this study can be found at:
