In this bonus episode of Schoolutions: Coaching and Teaching Strategies, I expand on my conversation with Jennifer McCarty Plucker, Ed. D. about book access and classroom libraries. Drawing from experts like Tammy Mulligan, Clare Landrigan, Towanda Harris, Cris Tovani, Kate Roberts, Donalyn Miller, Colby Sharp, and Molly Ness, I explore strategies for building effective classroom libraries, empowering students to create their own text sets, and ensuring equitable book access.  You’ll learn about the importance of strategic partnerships, diverse representation in book selections, and community engagement in addressing book deserts. Essential listening for educators, librarians, and caregivers interested in fostering literacy development through thoughtful curation of reading resources.
