Study Abroad: School Librarians Go Global
Schultz-Jones, Barbara
Knowledge Quest, v46 n5 p16-22 May-Jun 2018
Gaining professional experience for pre-service school librarians is essential and can be accomplished through curriculum requirements such as practicums, internships, or field experiences. These experiences are designed to prepare school librarians for active professional roles by providing an environment in which they can put classroom theories into practice and encounter the realities of interacting with a diverse set of students and student needs. Study abroad options include: (1) Exchange programs; (2) Affiliate programs; and (3) Faculty-led programs. Universities with school library programs typically offer study abroad programs, and it's worth investigating the options for opportunities to broaden professional and personal experience.
