    5. Why Should the Media Specialist Help Integrate Technology? The Media Specialist is the Center of the School Every Child Meets and Interacts with the Media Specialist Students perceive school librarians as part of an educational process-most kids dont even get graded on what the librarian teaches them.Youth Information-Seeking Behaviors: Theories, Models, and Issues (Scarecrow, 2004).

    10. Support for Collaboration In 1989, Berkowitz and Eisenberg acknowledged the gap between the library media specialist's potential as a curriculum consultant in theory and in practice, noting that library media specialists' interest in being involved in curriculum dates back to the 1950s. Assignments developed in partnership between teachers and library media specialists are known to be more "authentic"-exhibiting a higher degree of meaning and significance (Gross & Kientz, 1999).

    11. Support Cont ( Rusell 2000). The results of a study by the Library Service Center of the Colorado State: Library offer the most recent support for library media specialists and teachers working collaboratively. The study concludes that test scores increase as school librarians spend more time collaborating with and providing training to teachers, providing input into curricula, and managing information technology for the school (Manzo, 2000).

    12. Support Cont. A significant number of prior studies also indicate a positive relationship between the library media program and academic achievement. Didier (1984) examines 38 of these studies, including Gaver's (1963) study of the impact of elementary library service on test scores; Greve's (1974) research on the effect of library service on the academic achievement of high school seniors; and Snider's (1965) investigation of the relationship between college success and knowledge of information skills.
