Many of us are fortunate to work with administrators who are highly attuned to the needs of students regarding information literacy and the needs of school communities regarding well-funded libraries and professional staffing. They may not always be able to effect immediate change, but they are often our best partners in the battle. I have had the good fortune to work for and with several supportive principals, directors of curriculum, and superintendents over the many years of my teaching career. They have enabled my best practice in the present as well as my professional and personal growth as an educator. I'd like to pay tribute to them now, most especially to Coley, Eleanor, Sheila, Joanne, Ira, Miriam, Heather, and--in the here and now--Don. They understood the mission. They believed in the positive outcomes of student learning and achievement. They fought the battle for and with me and my colleagues. Thank heaven for administrators who make student learning and achievement through libraries a top priority!
