 guidance is needed from the LSTA Council on how to define the scope of the SDLP and address these concerns.   In addition, there continues to be the possibility that the State Library could partner with ODE to fund K-12-oriented resources, especially since
 Statewide Databases tend to be the only databases to which most K-12 schools have access.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
