Washington Coalition for School Libraries

Full-time certified teacher-librarian in every school
Fully-funded
library materials and technology resources
The Washington Coalition for School Libraries and Information
Technology (WCSLit) envisions a future where every public school or
small district in Washington state is served by a full-time,
certified teacher-librarian who manages a fully-funded library and
technology resource collection. The coalition looks to a future
where students from across the state have the same access to
technology, the same chance for literacy, and the same opportunity
to receive a world-class education. It is our hope that Washington
state standards for library and information technology education
become the benchmark for library and information technology
instruction across the nation.
Equitable access to technology, literacy, and opportunity
WA State LIT education standards become a benchmark
