Re: [LM_NET] AASL Economic Impact Survey

[Ann Martin <libraryann@COMCAST.NET>]

Dear school library media specialists OR members, 



During these tough economic times it is more important than ever for AASL to 
advocate on behalf of the community we serve.  Throughout the year, AASL responds 
to the school library media community through our Advocacy toolkits and, for those 
programs in jeopardy, formal letters.  Additionally, AASL often responds to 
requests for comments from the media.  The recent economic state has created an 
influx of media inquiries surrounding the impact of recession on children in 
particular, and AASL would like to be prepared to offer both overall data on U.S. 
school library media programs, but also some local community examples. 



We are asking all SLMS to please take a few minutes to complete a survey regarding 
your district's school library media programs.  The survey should take no more 
than 5 minutes of your time and can greatly impact the future of school library 
media programs across the country.

Thank you for your time and for helping AASL to continue our commitment to the 
school library media community. 


Ann
