One person....many names

Information specialist, curriculum leader and collaboraror. These are the 3 roles that I would like to be referred to by both staff and students. Curriculum leader and collaborator are the easier ones for me as I've come to the TL role after 10 years of classroom teaching. During these 10 years I have taught in P6, P5 and larger schools where I needed to know all areas of curriculum. I believe my knowledge and interest in curriculum is extensive and this was one of the things I was going to miss most when I applied for the TL role. After Ass.1 I can now see how my knowledge is an advantage - a necessity if you consider how poorly resourced the library collection is in all areas of supporting curriculum. Collaboration is also a strength of mine - with students, staff and community - and I have always taught in a collaborative way with co-workers and encourage this approach in the library - show me a TL who does not acknowledge the expertise of others and I'll show you an arrogant TL!!! Information specialist....now there's the challenge.
