School libraries and librarians are the backbone of academic success, yet they often don't get the recognition they deserve in public education. Did you know that over 50 years of research, spanning more than 60 studies, consistently show that students with access to well-resourced school libraries and certified librarians perform better academically? Beyond boosting academic performance, school libraries provide a nurturing space for students to ignite their love for reading, hone their digital literacy, sharpen research skills, and improve core academic abilities. They are vital in shaping strong, civically engaged learners.

How can forming a close relationship with a librarian and getting involved on campus enhance a student's academic success and sense of belonging? Alexa Azopardi, librarian at HCC Stafford campus, shares her advice. “Students should find a librarian they like to work with and make them their new best friend. Librarians can show you where all the good stuff is, making Google and Wikipedia unnecessary. We guide students in using databases and finding academic scholarly information for their college-level homework. Also, getting involved on campus will bring a sense of belonging and actually make you more successful. Come to the library to study. Being in the library, surrounded by books and other dedicated students, can boost your productivity.” #HCC #HCCSouthwest #RealWorldEducation #WeAreHCC #StudentLife #StudentSuccess #Education #HigherEducation #CollegeLife #LearningSkills #StudyTips #AcademicSuccess

"Numerous studies find that students achieve improved outcomes at schools with a full time librarian. And school librarians offer the best return-on-investment available in public education. Therefore, a thorough and efficient #education should include a school librarian. Data-driven decisions about schools should include or add, not remove, school librarians." #libraries #literacy

Specialized academic librarians are the unsung heroes of higher education. They are the dedicated professionals who go beyond the call of duty to support students and faculty in their scholarly pursuits. With expertise in various disciplines, these librarians are not just custodians of information but are active participants in the academic journey of their institutions. Whether it's a science librarian aiding in complex research or an art librarian curating resources for creative projects, their specialized knowledge is invaluable. They bridge the gap between vast resources and the specific needs of the academic community, ensuring that every query is met with precision and depth. Let's celebrate the specialized academic librarians who enrich our educational experiences and contribute to the advancement of knowledge and research. Their work may often be behind the scenes, but it is absolutely central to the success of students and educators alike. #AcademicLibrarians #HigherEducation #LibraryScience

"One way to think about research is that when we study our problems, practices, and the interactions our constituents have with us and with our libraries, we develop professionally, make evidence-based decisions about practice, and help members of our college community improve their teaching and learning. In other words, it helps librarians do their jobs more effectively. This suggests a certain shortsightedness in some of these institutional policies. Not only do [some] organizations not value research as a way to contribute to the field, they also do not value it as a means of development for their professional staff, nor as a means to improve services, thereby improving teaching and learning." In other words, let your people grow. https://lnkd.in/ggVRJrnw
