PROMOTING LITERACY AND LEARNING:
INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL LIBRARIES MONTH

International School Libraries Month, a global celebration every October, unites educators, school administrators, librarians, students, and communities worldwide in recognizing the pivotal role of school libraries in student education and development. This month-long event is a testament to the global community's commitment to fostering a love of reading, supporting academic achievement, and providing access to diverse resources that enrich the learning experience.

The International Association of School Librarianship (IASL), a professional organization committed to advancing the profession of school librarianship and promoting the development of robust and vibrant school library programs worldwide, champions the event. The IASL launched International School Libraries Month as an expansion of International School Library Day, recognizing the need for a broader celebration that could encompass various activities and initiatives throughout the entire month.

International School Libraries Month is a vibrant celebration that engages students, teachers, and communities in a variety of activities. From book fairs to author visits, reading challenges to library open houses, the month is filled with opportunities for exploration and learning. Librarians host workshops and storytelling sessions, encouraging students to delve into the resources available in their school libraries. This month also serves as a platform for schools to showcase their library programs and advocate for continued support and funding.

IMPORTANCE OF SCHOOL LIBRARIES

School libraries are vital to the educational ecosystem. They provide students access to a wide range of books, digital resources, and research materials supporting their academic growth and personal interests. Beyond serving as a knowledge repository, school libraries play a crucial role in developing information literacy skills, empowering students to critically evaluate and use information effectively.

Libraries also serve as inclusive spaces where students can explore diverse perspectives, foster creativity, and engage in independent learning. In an age where digital information is ubiquitous, school libraries help students navigate the vast array of available information, equipping them with the skills needed to become informed and responsible digital citizens.

International School Libraries Month underscores these institutions' importance in nurturing young people's intellectual and personal development. The event advocates for the ongoing support and investment in these critical educational resources by celebrating school libraries, ensuring students have the tools to succeed in school and beyond.
