<br>
I posted the message below to the OASL listserv. Admittedly, the focus is on what school librarians can do to help with the common core state standards (CCSS), but several things translate to public libraries. For example, library staff could feature more nonfiction
during the summer reading program, in programming like storytimes, etc. If you work with teachers, you can point them to some of the resources mentioned below. You get the idea.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:blue">The article offers some very practical advice on supporting the common core standards, especially around building your nonfiction collection. Recall that an emphasis on engaging students with informational
text is one of the major shifts in the English language arts and the literacy in the content areas standards. The article ends with a section on getting started with the CCSS that encourages library staff to rethink their collection and its funding sources.
Below are a few resources that can support you in those efforts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="Default" style="margin-left:1.0in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:blue">The Oregon State Board of Education adopted the Common Core State Standards in English language arts and math in October 2010. There’s a transition plan in place, and students
will be expected to pass updated assessment tests as of the 2014-15 school year. So what’s different about the CCSS? Well, there are “six shifts that the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in ELA & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical
Subjects<b> </b>require of us if we are to be truly aligned with the CCSS in terms of curricular materials and classroom instruction.” For example, there’s a much greater emphasis on reading informational text -- 50% of total reading for K-5 students, 55%
for middle schoolers, and 70% by the end of high school. There is also a greater emphasis on reading and writing instruction in the content areas and on reading increasingly more complex text. Do the print and electronic collections in your library support
these shifts?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
