The Impact of School Libraries on Academic Achievement

School Libraries Matter: Views from the Research

We are honored to have co-authored a chapter with our founder, Keith Curry Lance, “The Impact of School Libraries on Academic Achievement,” in the new book School Libraries Matter. In addition to reviewing the school library research that LRS and RSL Research have conducted over the past two decades, the chapter also contains a 5-step improvement plan to use this research to improve school library programs, as well as an agenda for future research.

For more information about LRS’s school library impact studies, as well as a bibliography of school library research, see http://www.lrs.org/data-tools/school-libraries/impact-studies/.
