Information Power: The Restructured School Library for the Nineties.
Barron, Daniel; Bergen, Timothy J., Jr.
Phi Delta Kappan, v73 n7 p521-25 Mar 1992
The restructured school library is an "information utility" furnishing information power to foster student thinking and commitment to lifelong learning. Library media specialists should be master teachers well versed in educational technology. Applying information power involves overcoming negative images of librarians and improving scheduling, library usage instruction, access to resources, technology usage and media selection. (MLH)
