Power Libraries Project The Power Libraries Project is a statewide project designed to bring recognition to the role that school library media programs and staff play in promoting student achievement. The focus is on developing and promoting quality school library media programs and practices that help students meet standards. The project is a cooperative project of the Central Colorado Library System and the Colorado State Library, funded in part by the Library Services and Technology Act.   Research shows that well-staffed, well-stocked media centers can contribute to CSAP scores that are as much as 18% higher than in those schools without such programs.  2002-2003 Power Libraries Project Developing and High Performance School Libraries have been announced: High Performance School Libraries (PDF) Microsoft Word File Developing School Libraries (PDF) Microsoft Word File 2001-2002 Power Libraries Schools High Performance School Libraries Developing School Libraries ...

NEW STUDY SHOWS IMPACT OF SCHOOL LIBRARIES, LIBRARIANS, ON STUDENTS Educators and parents agree children need good skills to succeed in school. But how do they gain these skills? A new study shows that strong library media programs are an important component. "How School Librarians Help Kids Achieve Standards-the Second Colorado Study," just released by the Library Research Service of the Colorado State Library, Colorado Department of Education, demonstrates that student scores on standardized tests are ten to eighteen percent higher at schools with outstanding library media programs and staff. Deputy Commission of Education Dick Elmer said, "We are beginning to isolate data which enables us to determine the factors that contribute to higher student achievement on the CSAP (Colorado Student Assessment Program) test. I've always believed school libraries play a critical role in successful teaching. I'm not surprised they contribute to higher CSAP scores." The study found that CSAP reading scores are higher in schools whose library media programs are better staffed, stocked, and funded, and where library media specialists play a leadership role in their schools, collaborate with classroom teachers in the design and delivery of instruction, and utilize computer networks to extend the reach of the library media center throughout the school. * School library media specialists who are leaders meet regularly with their principals, serve with teachers on standards and curriculum committees, and meet regularly with their own staff.

This first study demonstrated that quality library media programs led to higher student test scores. The replication and expansion of the study in 1999 corroborates the original findings as well as evaluating the role of the school librarian media specialist and the relationship between better school library services and better student performance. Similar recent studies for Alaska and Pennsylvania also support these findings.
