School Library System Communication Coordinators: Communication Coordinators

Council Representation and Duties

Communication Coordinators are a separate group from the school library system council with different roles and responsibilities. The main function of the communication coordinators (individually and as a group) is to provide two-way communication between the member libraries and the school library system. This can be accomplished through:

• regular meetings in which the communication coordinators discuss how to implement the policies recommended by the council;
• sharing information on system programs (e.g., training), procedures (e.g., interlibrary loan), data collection (e.g., database development, statistics on interlibrary loan, etc.);
• developing committees and/or interest groups (e.g., an elementary school librarians cluster group, automation users group, etc.);
• bringing the needs of school library system users (students, faculty and administrators) to the attention of the school library system council and director;
• identifying subject experts from among member librarians and others and recruiting them to participate in SLS projects and committees; and
• identifying and recruiting potential council members.
