Teacher Librarians:
Join Us for "Better Together: Collaborative Conversations!"

Monthly Sessions for Iowa School Teacher Librarians
If so, Iowa's AEAs are providing you that opportunity! Join AEA library and media consultants for the monthly "Better Together" webinar series. This year's online conversations will focus on the School Librarian Role in Pandemic Learning Conditions from AASL. In between all the serious conversations, we'll also allow time for you to build relationships with other teacher librarians across the state because we're BETTER together!
And the best part? No cost, no long agenda and no drive time!
