School librarians can create inclusive spaces that promote care for ourselves, each other, our communities and the world around us as a daily practice.” In the Parkway School District, we used this quote from Wendy Stephens’ new book titled, The Mindful School Librarian, to center our work this year. Our work around this theme has so far included projects in culturally responsive texts, sustainability, and engaging our staff and student readers.
