This conference encompasses many of
those Literacies that empower our students to be informed and aware
learners:
-
Personal Literacy that leads to lifelong
learning and an ability to function well in society
-
Technological Literacies that include
e-Literacies, Media and visual Literacies
-
Critical Literacy that embraces Ethical
and Moral Literacy and Problem Solving; and
- Traditional and Cultural
Literacies.
Our theme Living Literacies Through Libraries
suggests on one hand that we who are involved in school libraries
should aspire to be living role models for best practice in Literacies.
On the other hand, we might interpret our theme as recognizing that
there are many ways school libraries provide a healthy and dynamic
context to keep Literacies alive and vital.
The 2006 Conference offers a variety and depth of voices, opportunities
for sharing and interacting, and strategies to take back and inject
into the lifeblood of our own workplace.
