Minnesota Standards for Effective School Library Media Programs

Created and hosted by the MN Educational Media Organization.
"The Minnesota Standards for Effective School Library Media Programs 2000 are based on current thinking on school library media programs that are integrated into their schools. In short, as supported by research, school library media programs succeed when their resources are folded in and related to the school’s curriculum and teaching and to the students’ learning."
