Literacy standards - digital learners

Description of committee process in formulating..common elements..using existing elements & standards..considered audience..standards. During the presentation  participants talked & discussed sections of the document - (short on handouts) posted on NYLA website however. Broken down then into skills —dispositions / assessments. I would have prefered less “publicity” in document for library to broaden it’s appeal to all areas of curriculum, however I know we strive to be mentioned and thought of at all. I just don’t want it to be seen as a “library only” document.   I was not an asset in the discussion sections - my voice is still unhappy!  For a more complete (and very positive experience) see this blog
