Libraries to learn

Abstract

David Lankes in his paper presented to the International seminar “Biblioteche per apprendere” (held on October 23, 2017, at the Ministry of Education, University and Research in Rome) states that the core of librarianship is the creation of knowledge and, therefore, the libraries should help a community to learn. More in detail, speaking about school libraries, the author depicts the teacher-librarian, an educator trained in pedagogy with a curriculum in information problem solving, being able to engage students around information literacy and problem solving.
