The Student Teaching and Research Services (STARS) program that is in place in a particular elementary school has proven very successful, not only in improving the services that are offered, but also in helping its participants to build their self-esteem. Those who seek a safe haven in the library during breaks make such a significant and visible contribution that their confidence grows, they see themselves in a more positive light, and their relationships with their peers improve. More often than not, a student needing help will seek out a STAR participant rather than an adult. The program consists of five modules--The Physical Environment; Circulation; Locating Resources; Promotion; and Personal Development--and there are three levels within each module: Protostar, Star, and Superstar. The STARS program has been very successful in this school, and even though there are a number of community service programs that students can be involved in, each year there are many applications to be a STARS participant. Students see the library as theirs and are very particular about how it is used. The staff members just thank their lucky stars!
