In accordance with "Information Power" (ALA, 1988), national guidelines for school library media programs, and the American Association of School Librarians (AASL), a branch of the American Library Association (ALA), the mission of the Rogers School library Media Program is "to ensure that students and staff are effective users of ideas and information." This mission is accomplished by:

Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning

* providing intellectual and physical access to materials in all formats;

* providing instruction to foster competence and stimulate interest in reading, viewing, and using information and ideas; and

* working with other educators to design learning strategies to meet the needs of individual students (ALA, 1988).
