Research-Based Reading Strategies in the Library for Adolescent Learners is a one-stop resource for librarians who face the difficult task of trying to offer appropriate reading instruction, need guidance on how to devote more time to reading instruction, need researched-based reading activities to meet modern standards, and are interested in collaborating with classroom teachers to meet the content demands of the curriculum.

Designed to assist school librarians and classroom teachers as they collaborate to help students improve reading comprehension and vocabulary skills, this book presents nine research-based, best-practice reading strategies for middle and high school use. These approaches blend the strategies with critical information literacy skills, helping teachers address the Information Literacy Standards for Student Learning, the Standards for the English Language Arts, and the Standards for the 21st-Century Learner. For each strategy, the book presents nuts-and-bolts information, connection to the standards, current research findings, assessment tools, and more.
