Approved By: Emily L. Stanford
 
Approved Date: July 1, 2025
 
AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY
 
Domains and Components will be used for librarian evaluation in conjunction with measures of student growth.
 
Measures of student growth will be aligned with the Caddo Parish Public School System&rsquo;s accountability measures
 
as outlined in the Louisiana Accountability System.
 
Working under the direction of the principal or assigned evaluator, administers the library in accordance with School
 
Board policies and uses instructional and administrative skills to promote the educational development of each student.
 
Librarians will fulfill duties and responsibilities associated with instruction, supervision, library management, student
 
assessment and evaluation, communication and collaboration, and extracurricular involvement.
 
Librarians are held accountable for meeting the LEADS Teaching Skills, Knowledge, and Responsibilities Performance
 
Standards, research-based standards based on twenty-six indicators and operationalized against a five-point scale
 
rubric. Librarians are also responsible for the academic growth of their students.
 
The Teaching Skills, Knowledge, and Responsibilities Performance Standards are divided into four domains.
 
Descriptors for each indicator may be found in the LEADS Rubric.
 
Domain 1: Instruction
 
This domain includes 11 indicators:
 
Standards and Objectives: Planning effective lessons aligned to the standards is dependent upon the librarian&rsquo;s ability
 
to create and communicate clearly defined learning outcomes or objectives appropriate for the students. In many ways,
 
this indicator is the foundation for all other indicators because if the librarian is not clear about what he or she wants
 
students to know and be able to do as a result of the lesson, the balance of the lesson cannot be properly developed or
 
implemented. Both the students and the librarian should understand what is to be accomplished during each lesson.
 
Planning: This indicator focuses on the librarian&rsquo;s ability to collaborate with content teachers in designing and
 
implementing meaningful learning experiences that integrate the use of resources, develop research skills, support
 
content skills, and various literacies.
 
Motivating Students: This indicator focuses on a librarian&rsquo;s ability to organize and present the content in a manner that
 
motivates students to learn. For a librarian to be able to develop these types of learning experiences, a librarian must
 
have in-depth knowledge of the students he/she teaches. This indicator connects strongly to Librarian Knowledge of
 
Students.
 
Activities and Materials: This indicator addresses the variety and appropriateness of activities and materials that a
 
librarian chooses to implement during a lesson as well as resources available in the library. Librarians should
 
demonstrate and model productive ways to use the resources and tools in the library. In order to provide and plan
 
appropriate activities and materials, a librarian must have knowledge of the needs and interests of the students.
 
Promoting Literacy: This indicator addresses the librarian promoting good books, reading for pleasure, fostering a love
 
of learning, and building students&rsquo; personal curiosity by encouraging students to read widely and deeply in multiple
 
genres, and to write and create for a variety of purposes.
 
Promoting Inquiry: This indicator focuses on the librarian&rsquo;s implementation of an inquiry-based research process with
 
students.
 
Librarian Content Knowledge: This indicator addresses the librarian&rsquo;s knowledge of the content he/she is teaching, as
 
well as his/her ability to implement strategies to support student learning. Also addressed in this indicator is the
 
librarian&rsquo;s ability to connect the content being taught to other ideas and concepts.

Librarian Knowledge of Students: The indicator focuses on how well a librarian knows his/her students and their
 
learning styles and interests. Therefore, it is closely connected to the indicator, Motivating Students.
 
Thinking: Thinking is something that can and should apply to every observation of a librarian. Librarians are expected
 
to implement regularly and consistently different types of thinking including:
 
<ul><li>Analytical Thinking,
</li><li>Practical Thinking,
</li><li>Creative Thinking,
</li><li>Research-based Thinking.
</li></ul>The librarian should provide opportunities where students:
 
<ul><li>Generate ideas and alternatives,
</li><li>Analyze problems from multiple perspectives and viewpoints,
</li><li>Monitor their thinking to ensure that they understand what they are learning, are attending to critical information,
</li></ul>and are aware of the learning strategies that they are using and why.
 
Problem Solving: Developing multiple skills in problem solving enriches the learner&rsquo;s ability to manage complex
 
tasks and higher levels of learning. By providing opportunities for students to practice many different approaches to
 
solving problems, the librarian empowers the student with an important life skill.
 
Domain 2: Environment
 
This domain includes 4 indicators:
 
Expectations: The descriptors under this indicator directly connect to the descriptors in the Instruction domain. The
 
librarian establishes and communicates clear standards of conduct, monitors student behavior, and responds to student
 
misbehavior in ways that are appropriate and respectful to the students. Learning opportunities are developed where all
 
students consistently experience success, and students lead opportunities that support learning and take initiative to
 
meet or exceed librarian standards. The librarian optimizes time to ensure each student meets individual goals.
 
Student Engagement: Students are consistently engaged in behaviors that maximize learning and increase time on task.
 
The librarian supports students&rsquo; engagement by structuring a learning environment for innovative use of information
 
and information technologies, in which all students respect diverse perspectives.
 
Learning Environment: This indicator addresses the learning environment of the library, including the physical
 
arrangement of the furniture availability of supplies for students to utilize. The librarian is responsible for maintaining
 
an inviting, flexible, and attractive environment with expectations that reflect students are curious, on task and are
 
respectful.
 
Respectful Conditions: Creating a positive-library climate begins with showing respect to one another. Librarians
 
most often set this in motion when they foster curiosity by:
 
<ul><li>Creating an atmosphere in which all students feel safe and empowered
</li><li>Interactions are learner-initiated
</li><li>Demonstrating respect for students and staff
</li><li>Using praise and positive reinforcements
</li></ul>Domain 3: Library Services &amp; Management
 
This domain includes 4 indicators:
 
Seeking Information:
 
The librarian supports students in seeking information by
 
<ul><li>Encouraging students to formulate questions about the validity and accuracy of information
</li><li>Activating students&rsquo; background knowledge as context
</li><li>Guiding students to make critical choices about information resources to use
</li></ul>Sharing and Crediting Sources: The exchange of valid information is a critical skill for college and career readiness.
 
Librarians prepare students for this by
 
<ul><li>Cultivating an environment that encourages students to access, ethically use, and share information
</li><li>Modeling the ethical use of a variety of communication tools, technology, and information resources
</li><li>Requiring complete attribution to acknowledge authorship and demonstrate respect for the intellectual property of
</li></ul>others
 
<ul><li>Demonstrating a commitment to professional ethics of librarianship by following copyright law and by upholding
</li></ul>School Librarian &ndash; Revised June 2025 Page 3 of 4
 
and defending the principles of the Library Bill of Rights and the American Library Association&rsquo;s Code of Ethics
 
Resource Management: Effective resource management is essential to the success of a dynamic library program. To
 
achieve this, librarians are expected to:
 
<ul><li>Consider changes necessary for future needs in an expanding dynamic program
</li><li>Solicit input from stakeholders
</li><li>Assess the collection, purchase new resources, and manage the collection to keep holdings current and meet the
</li></ul>needs of the changing student and instructional needs
