The Teacher Librarian Services (LIB) Credential Program at Azusa Pacific University is a cutting-edge program which prepares candidates for the specialized and comprehensive role of school librarianship in California’s pluralistic schools and communities. The program prepares librarian services teachers as educational leaders who are experts in technology, literacy, and curricula.
Candidates for the LIB and the Master of Arts in Education: School Librarianship are multiple-subject and/or single-subject credentialed teachers who, as librarian services specialists, will develop, implement, and evaluate programs and services for school library centers. The Teacher Librarian Services Credential authorizes the holder to instruct pupils in the choice and use of library materials, to plan and coordinate school library programs with the instructional programs of a school district, to select materials for school and district libraries, to coordinate or supervise library programs at the school district or county level, to plan and conduct a course of instruction for those pupils who assist in the operation of school libraries, to supervise classified personnel assigned to the school library duties, and to develop procedures for and management of the school and district libraries.
