Assistant /Associate Professor - AI/Emerging Technologies Librarian

Caddo Parish Public Schools

<p></p><div><h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>CCADDO PARISH SCHOOL JOB DESCRIPTION
</b><br>
<b>Job Title: School Librarian
</b><br>
<b>Prepared By: Brandy Holcomb/Jennifer Tillman
</b><br>
<b>Prepared Date: June 30, 2025
</b><br>
<b>Approved By: Emily L. Stanford
</b><br>
<b>Approved Date: July 1, 2025
</b><br>
<b>AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY
</b><br>
<b>Domains and Components will be used for librarian evaluation in conjunction with measures of student growth.
</b><br>
<b>Measures of student growth will be aligned with the Caddo Parish Public School System&rsquo;s accountability measures
</b><br>
<b>as outlined in the Louisiana Accountability System.
</b><br>
<b>Working under the direction of the principal or assigned evaluator, administers the library in accordance with School
</b><br>
<b>Board policies and uses instructional and administrative skills to promote the educational development of each student.
</b><br>
<b>Librarians will fulfill duties and responsibilities associated with instruction, supervision, library management, student
</b><br>
<b>assessment and evaluation, communication and collaboration, and extracurricular involvement.
</b><br>
<b>Librarians are held accountable for meeting the LEADS Teaching Skills, Knowledge, and Responsibilities Performance
</b><br>
<b>Standards, research-based standards based on twenty-six indicators and operationalized against a five-point scale
</b><br>
<b>rubric. Librarians are also responsible for the academic growth of their students.
</b><br>
<b>The Teaching Skills, Knowledge, and Responsibilities Performance Standards are divided into four domains.
</b><br>
<b>Descriptors for each indicator may be found in the LEADS Rubric.
</b><br>
<b>Domain 1: Instruction
</b><br>
<b>This domain includes 11 indicators:
</b><br>
<b>Standards and Objectives: Planning effective lessons aligned to the standards is dependent upon the librarian&rsquo;s ability
</b><br>
<b>to create and communicate clearly defined learning outcomes or objectives appropriate for the students. In many ways,
</b><br>
<b>this indicator is the foundation for all other indicators because if the librarian is not clear about what he or she wants
</b><br>
<b>students to know and be able to do as a result of the lesson, the balance of the lesson cannot be properly developed or
</b><br>
<b>implemented. Both the students and the librarian should understand what is to be accomplished during each lesson.
</b><br>
<b>Planning: This indicator focuses on the librarian&rsquo;s ability to collaborate with content teachers in designing and
</b><br>
<b>implementing meaningful learning experiences that integrate the use of resources, develop research skills, support
</b><br>
<b>content skills, and various literacies.
</b><br>
<b>Motivating Students: This indicator focuses on a librarian&rsquo;s ability to organize and present the content in a manner that
</b><br>
<b>motivates students to learn. For a librarian to be able to develop these types of learning experiences, a librarian must
</b><br>
<b>have in-depth knowledge of the students he/she teaches. This indicator connects strongly to Librarian Knowledge of
</b><br>
<b>Students.
</b><br>
<b>Activities and Materials: This indicator addresses the variety and appropriateness of activities and materials that a
</b><br>
<b>librarian chooses to implement during a lesson as well as resources available in the library. Librarians should
</b><br>
<b>demonstrate and model productive ways to use the resources and tools in the library. In order to provide and plan
</b><br>
<b>appropriate activities and materials, a librarian must have knowledge of the needs and interests of the students.
</b><br>
<b>Promoting Literacy: This indicator addresses the librarian promoting good books, reading for pleasure, fostering a love
</b><br>
<b>of learning, and building students&rsquo; personal curiosity by encouraging students to read widely and deeply in multiple
</b><br>
<b>genres, and to write and create for a variety of purposes.
</b><br>
<b>Promoting Inquiry: This indicator focuses on the librarian&rsquo;s implementation of an inquiry-based research process with
</b><br>
<b>students.
</b><br>
<b>Librarian Content Knowledge: This indicator addresses the librarian&rsquo;s knowledge of the content he/she is teaching, as
</b><br>
<b>well as his/her ability to implement strategies to support student learning. Also addressed in this indicator is the
</b><br>
<b>librarian&rsquo;s ability to connect the content being taught to other ideas and concepts.
</b><br>
<b>School Librarian &ndash; Revised June 2025 Page 2 of 4
</b><br>
<b>Librarian Knowledge of Students: The indicator focuses on how well a librarian knows his/her students and their
</b><br>
<b>learning styles and interests. Therefore, it is closely connected to the indicator, Motivating Students.
</b><br>
<b>Thinking: Thinking is something that can and should apply to every observation of a librarian. Librarians are expected
</b><br>
<b>to implement regularly and consistently different types of thinking including:
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Analytical Thinking,
</b></li><li><b>Practical Thinking,
</b></li><li><b>Creative Thinking,
</b></li><li><b>Research-based Thinking.
</b></li></ul><b>The librarian should provide opportunities where students:
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Generate ideas and alternatives,
</b></li><li><b>Analyze problems from multiple perspectives and viewpoints,
</b></li><li><b>Monitor their thinking to ensure that they understand what they are learning, are attending to critical information,
</b></li></ul><b>and are aware of the learning strategies that they are using and why.
</b><br>
<b>Problem Solving: Developing multiple skills in problem solving enriches the learner&rsquo;s ability to manage complex
</b><br>
<b>tasks and higher levels of learning. By providing opportunities for students to practice many different approaches to
</b><br>
<b>solving problems, the librarian empowers the student with an important life skill.
</b><br>
<b>Domain 2: Environment
</b><br>
<b>This domain includes 4 indicators:
</b><br>
<b>Expectations: The descriptors under this indicator directly connect to the descriptors in the Instruction domain. The
</b><br>
<b>librarian establishes and communicates clear standards of conduct, monitors student behavior, and responds to student
</b><br>
<b>misbehavior in ways that are appropriate and respectful to the students. Learning opportunities are developed where all
</b><br>
<b>students consistently experience success, and students lead opportunities that support learning and take initiative to
</b><br>
<b>meet or exceed librarian standards. The librarian optimizes time to ensure each student meets individual goals.
</b><br>
<b>Student Engagement: Students are consistently engaged in behaviors that maximize learning and increase time on task.
</b><br>
<b>The librarian supports students&rsquo; engagement by structuring a learning environment for innovative use of information
</b><br>
<b>and information technologies, in which all students respect diverse perspectives.
</b><br>
<b>Learning Environment: This indicator addresses the learning environment of the library, including the physical
</b><br>
<b>arrangement of the furniture availability of supplies for students to utilize. The librarian is responsible for maintaining
</b><br>
<b>an inviting, flexible, and attractive environment with expectations that reflect students are curious, on task and are
</b><br>
<b>respectful.
</b><br>
<b>Respectful Conditions: Creating a positive-library climate begins with showing respect to one another. Librarians
</b><br>
<b>most often set this in motion when they foster curiosity by:
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Creating an atmosphere in which all students feel safe and empowered
</b></li><li><b>Interactions are learner-initiated
</b></li><li><b>Demonstrating respect for students and staff
</b></li><li><b>Using praise and positive reinforcements
</b></li></ul><b>Domain 3: Library Services &amp; Management
</b><br>
<b>This domain includes 4 indicators:
</b><br>
<b>Seeking Information:
</b><br>
<b>The librarian supports students in seeking information by
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Encouraging students to formulate questions about the validity and accuracy of information
</b></li><li><b>Activating students&rsquo; background knowledge as context
</b></li><li><b>Guiding students to make critical choices about information resources to use
</b></li></ul><b>Sharing and Crediting Sources: The exchange of valid information is a critical skill for college and career readiness.
</b><br>
<b>Librarians prepare students for this by
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Cultivating an environment that encourages students to access, ethically use, and share information
</b></li><li><b>Modeling the ethical use of a variety of communication tools, technology, and information resources
</b></li><li><b>Requiring complete attribution to acknowledge authorship and demonstrate respect for the intellectual property of
</b></li></ul><b>others
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Demonstrating a commitment to professional ethics of librarianship by following copyright law and by upholding
</b></li></ul><b>School Librarian &ndash; Revised June 2025 Page 3 of 4
</b><br>
<b>and defending the principles of the Library Bill of Rights and the American Library Association&rsquo;s Code of Ethics
</b><br>
<b>Resource Management: Effective resource management is essential to the success of a dynamic library program. To
</b><br>
<b>achieve this, librarians are expected to:
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Consider changes necessary for future needs in an expanding dynamic program
</b></li><li><b>Solicit input from stakeholders
</b></li><li><b>Assess the collection, purchase new resources, and manage the collection to keep holdings current and meet the
</b></li></ul><b>needs of the changing student and instructional needs
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Use data effectively
</b></li><li><b>Follow district, department, and/or school guidelines for managing the budget and maintaining accurate financial
</b></li></ul><b>records
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Advocate for a progressive and comprehensive program by requesting financial support for resources and other
</b></li></ul><b>needs
</b><br>
<b>Library Administration: The librarian is charged with managing an effective library program that supports the learning
</b><br>
<b>goals of the school community.
</b><br>
<b>Domain 4: Professionalism
</b><br>
<b>This domain includes 4 indicators:
</b><br>
<b>Growing and Developing Professionally:
</b><br>
<b>The Librarian
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>Pursues professional development opportunities,
</b></li><li><b>Contributes to the profession by sharing newly learned knowledge and practices, and
</b></li><li><b>Seeks opportunities to lead professional development.
</b></li></ul><b>Reflecting:
</b><br>
<ul><li><b>The librarian evaluates and refines the effectiveness of services, resources, instructional strategies, and facilitates
