Do school libraries improve student achievement??

Well this was going to be the article that I quoted from in my job interview this week, only to totally forget to even mention it. Oh well at least I will be able to recall it for any future interviews.

Oberg, D. (2002). Looking for the evidence: Do school libraries improve student achievement?, School Libraries in Canada, 22(2), 10-14.

This article was mostly about carrying out action research projects to help a school to know if the students are improving as a result of the school library program, and how to use the data collected.

Quite a useful article if I ever feel the need to complete this type of research or if Roy somehow makes us do it as an assignment for this course.......please don't!!
