**GOALS for the Year**
The first step of the evaluation process is to set yearly goals. Here were mine for 2010-2011: Embedded librarianship is the idea that the library and library resources are part of the student's information world when and where needed. This has meant being available in classes and working on building virtual resources for teachers' websites as well as the library website. This idea provides rich opportunities for improving access to information and building information skills, but there are scalability concerns. This has been a slow process. This year I've been working with ISAIL (Illinois Standards Aligned Instruction for Illinois Libraries) and been part of a statewide task force to align the Common Core standards with library instruction. This work (although at times painful) has been really helpful to me as I continue work on developing a cohesive approach to building information literacy skills for students at Highland that is integrated into content-area learning.
 * 1. Experiment and expand my work as an Embedded Librarian **
 * 2. Develop a plan to deliver information skills across the content areas that spirals during student experiences at Highland. **
