This document summarizes the efforts of the library and learning commons at Moreau Catholic High School in Hayward, CA to align their resources and instruction with the Common Core State Standards. It describes their three main efforts: developing a scope and sequence for information literacy standards, creating a framework to evaluate domains for librarians and teachers, and partnering with other organizations like St. Mary's College to spread information literacy. It also explains how the library supports Common Core goals like developing research skills, evaluating text complexity, and facilitating problem-finding through their maker lab and partnerships for maker education.

Anne A framework for professional practice can be used for a wide range of purposes, from meeting novices' needs to enhancing veterans' skills. Because teaching is complex, it is helpful to have a road map through the territory, structured around a shared understanding of teaching/best practices. the framework gives librarians a framework that is similar to teachers and can be evaluated by our AP of Instruction.

Jessica: We followed the format of the ACRL and came up with 5 standards, performance indicators and outcomes that address what we expect students to learn. We had a sense of this already, knowing the instruction we provide, but we wanted to create a curriculum map for our own benefit and as an evaluative tool for administrators. This idea ties back to best practices within the framework.
Jessica. Then we decided to change student to learner,
Jessica There are 3 performance indicators for students under standard 1 and We have performance indicators for both students and teachers that fall under the standards. Amount of outcomes is greater for students than teachers. The ones for teachers relate to how they can partner with us to help their students meet the performance indicators.
Anne Recommendations for library partnerships within survey too! Survey: In what areas/aspects of our class does information literacy matter? Where is it taught? (SUGGESTIONS INCLUDED!) Map outcomes: How can assignments best address these aspects? How can assignments be designed to address information literacy challenges students experience? When can the Library Team come partner with teachers? Recommendations for library partnership.
