March 23rd 2010 - Analysis of the Community

A deep breath and begin again! I have found that conducting an analysis of the school community put me in a better frame of mind. The knowledge now about the needs and wants of the school community as a whole has opened up a new way of looking at my role as a teacher librarian. The school lacks digital resources yet at the same time screams out for these resources to aid in the learning development of the clientele! Aha! Thanks to the reading of Bishop, as it concludes that a community analysis is needed for a collection which will be used (Bishop, 2007).
