<div><font face="Calibri" size="3">There's a body of research called "school library impact studies" that should prove helpful. You can Google that, but here are some starting points:</font></div>

incremental increases in reading scores."</font></li><li><font face="Calibri" size="3">The full study can be borrowed from the State Library.</font></li></ul>
