Critical information regarding the proposed documents that will replace Rule 10
LINK TO ADVOCACY TOOLKIT
On April 22, the Nebraska School Librarians Association board received a draft of the proposed new regulations regarding the approval, accreditation, and accountability for schools; a document that will replace Rule 10.
This proposed draft is not what we hoped for when a committee of school librarians was formed and asked to provide input on changes to Rule 10.
You can find the NDE news release here "NDE Seeking Public Input On Draft Approval, Accreditation, and Accountability Regulations." This is a draft, and NDE is seeking public input regarding the draft.
As public comment is open until June, we want to make sure that people have the tools they need to thoughtfully and thoroughly respond to the draft. With input from AASL and other entities, the NSLA Advocacy toolkit is now available to help you and your stakeholders support school libraries and school librarians in Nebraska.
You can find the toolkit on our Advocacy page here.
NSLA is committed to advocating for the students, the schools, and the school librarians in our state. A certified school librarian in every school should be an expectation, not a privilege. Stay tuned. More information will be coming soon to NSLA members as well as all school librarians in Nebraska.
Sincerely,
Your NSLA Board

"Ryan is very open to the ideas we have about running our program with forward thinking and keeping in mind the interests of teenagers. We have very few rules and our library is very much a commons area with areas allocated for instruction. Ryan is supportive of our programming ideas and is the first to compliment our program and staff. "
"Despite overseeing three departments, he administers not from his office, but comes into our library daily knowing our staff and students, and actively supporting and advocating for our department’s needs. "
