SWOT


 * **Strengths**
 * Each building has its own library
 * All libraries are welcoming, inviting, pleasant spaces for learning
 * With CSF we have created well-rounded collections
 * We have certified librarians
 * Destiny
 * Provide 24/7 online resources to students and staff || **Weaknesses**
 * W/o collaboration, authentic learning of Information Literacy Skills is difficult.
 * Delivery of information skills is inconsistent - especially at upper grade levels especially due to staffing limitations - LMS not in building when teachers and students have needs.
 * Staff is not adequate to meet with all students and collaborate with all staff.
 * Libraries not all physically able to meet the needs of the student population growth (shelving)
 * We do not have a full time certified librarian at the MS and HS
 * We do not have enough support staff to meet the needs of students and staff
 * Fixed schedules - need more flexible scheduling.
 * Destiny need updating so it can be used to its fullest
 * Evening backup schedule is during "prime" homework time. (7:00??)
 * As building populations rise, it is difficult to give all classes access to the facility when it is needed because of fixed schedule.
 * Don't have enough access to professional development specific to library - specifically conferences and workshops as well as web-based workshops. ||
 * **Opportunities**
 * Additional library staffing
 * Increase flexible scheduling
 * Increase collaboration time with staff
 * Increase PLC time for librarians as well as with staff.
 * Increase staff development in the use of library resources
 * To teach and guide students in becoming critical media and information users
 * Technology helps us deliver information 24/7
 * We can help design and teach technology along with information lessons (PLE) || **Threats**
 * Technology - available to all students outside of school?
 * How does technology impact the physical library and loaning vs. buying
 * Providing multiple types of media (print, electronic) is expensive. ||
