What is a Teacher/Librarian?

Librarianship has a branding problem. When I was pursuing my M.L.S., we were Librarians. When I was licensed by New York State, I became an "SLMS" (School Library Media Specialist).  Apparently, this now sounds too technical, so in school libraries we are back to "Teacher/Librarian."  Confused?  "Library Girl" (http://lib-girl.blogspot.com/) has created an excellent poster to explain it all for you.  And us.

"The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." - Alvin Toffler
