In the last Future Ready Librarian webinar of the year, Shannon McClintock Miller has invited a few special guests to share favorite books, authors, technology, trends, ideas, advocacy tips, and other top things that have been happening in the library and within education in 2019. When we examine our framework as Future Ready Librarians, we tie this essential work into the wedges of curation, empowering our students as creators, literacy, equitable digital access and more.

As we get ready for the holiday break, we will also be sharing ways to keep students engaged and learning with resources and ideas to take back to your communities.

Here are a few questions we will ponder:

  • What is the “hot” new technology you are using this year with your students in the library?
  • What are the books (titles) that you just can’t keep on the shelf?
  • What is it that your teachers have been coming to you with this year?
  • What do you see as BIG things that are coming?
  • What resources and programs do you share with your students as we go into the holiday and a new year? How do you keep connected?

Register even if you can't attend live so you will receive the webinar archive!

New FRS Framework Crosswalk with CoSN's Trusted Learning Environment Seal


The purpose of the Trusted Learning Environment (TLE) Practice and Future Ready Schools® Framework (FRS Framework) crosswalk is to identify areas where the programs align and provide educators with insight into how their work may be leveraged across both programs. While both the TLE and the FRS Framework are related to the use of data in schools, the focus of each is unique. This crosswalk centers on connecting the TLE as a whole, to the Data and Privacy gear of the FRS Framework. DOWNLOAD THE CROSSWALK
