Impact of School Library Media Centers on Academic Achievement
An article from School Library Media Quarterly by Keith Curry Lance, Director, Library Research Service, Colorado which details the Colorado study which looked at the relationship between funding of Library media centers and student achievement. One conclusion was that students at schools with better-funded Library media centers tend to achieve higher average reading scores, whether their schools and communities are rich or poor and whether adults in their community are well or poorly educated.

Use of Library Students are encouraged to use the library as often as they desire. We wish to encourage the habits of independent study and research, as learning should be a lifetime pursuit. The library is to be used by those students who desire a place for quiet study. Students who wish to work in groups should use the cafeteria. Students who wish to use the library during a traditionally supervised study period should plan to secure a library pass from one of their classroom teachers. This pass, secured before the period in which the student expects to use the library
