Why Teach LIBRARY with GLOBAL ED Lens?
*AASL Standards are aligned with the Global Tenets (2 birds…)
*Students need opportunity to build empathy and perspective in early years
*Because We see ALL the Students in the school...We are the HEART
*STUDENTS and PARENTS (hopefully staff) will advocate for need of libraries
*WE have resources to encourage students to expand their curiosity (books)
*SCIENCE, which is being back seated, can be explored in EASY ways
*Have the opportunity to get students IN LOVE with curiosity & exploration
So... I AM LIMITED in my time and budget, how do I do this in my library without too much EXTRA work?

The Human Library™ is designed to build a positive framework for conversations that can challenge stereotypes and prejudices through dialogue.
The Human Library is a place where real people are on loan to readers.
A place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered.

“She is Muslim but lives in a society where most people are white and Christian, and I could relate to her because we were both “different”. I now understand how although some people look different, we are all similar.” -6th grader
“I’m also multiracial and half Asian, but people don’t usually think I’m Asian. I understand that a person’s ethnicity can be different from how they look.” - 8th grader
“We are both half Chinese and want to give back to the ones who gave to us. I understand that America wasn’t always so accepting as it is today.” - 6th grader

Research supports our understanding that diversity strengthens the learning process; when ideas and assumptions are challenged by those with different perspectives, it pushes us to expand our thinking and approach problems in new ways. Excellence comes with, not at the expense of, diversity. - from our DEI statement
From Rural to Global
Cultivating collaboration and innovation in any location.
