Based on educational research, this book will help school librarians create an environment that supports resilience in their school library media center. Resilience is the capacity of children to grow up successful, content, and competent even though they are faced with adversities like poverty, violence, illness, or neglect. Schools can create environments that help these children succeed. The Resilient School Library provides information about resilience and suggests specific strategies school library media specialists can use to support children who are at risk. These same strategies will also strengthen the resilience of those children who are already functioning well. After a brief introduction to the six elements of resilience, each element is addressed in greater detail in chapters focusing on academic efficacy, self-selected learning goals, behavioral self-control, positive relationships with peers, a positive relationship with a caring adult, and creating a family situation that supports what happens in school. A chapter on pedagogical strategies supplements comments in the six main chapters, while a chapter on action research will help readers document the effect of the plans they enact to support resilience. An extensive bibliography at the end of each chapter provides additional information for those readers who are interested in pursuing this study further Includes ClassMaps for School Librarians, a copyrighted survey instrument that enables school library media specialists to document student resilience and can also be used to measure the effectiveness of resilience plans
