Summary

In this episode, hosts Darryl and Elizabeth celebrate their first year of podcasting about FOSIL, Education and School Libraries. After concluding a two-part history of school libraries last month, we decided to dedicate this session to answering listener questions. We began by addressing concerns about the IFLA School Library Guidelines and their relevance today, discussing the importance of adapting these guidelines to local and national contexts. We also look into how school librarians can balance inquiry-based learning with other responsibilities, emphasising the need to integrate core instructional activities into an inquiry-centered framework. The conversation then shifted to the role of school librarians in supporting their school's strategic development plans and how to align library missions with broader educational goals. Questions about the impact of artificial intelligence on academic integrity and the future challenges and opportunities it presents for school librarians are discussed and we finally, explore the historical development of school librarianship in America, Australia, and the UK, and speculate on the potential changes a new UK government might bring to the sector.
