"It is more than ironic that school districts are willing to spend hundreds of 
thousands of dollars on reading programs and staff development which have had 
limited success in boosting test scores, but are unwilling to invest in school 
library programs that show such direct correlations to student success,"            
       researcher Douglas Achterman wrote in a 2008 study of California school 
libraries.
