American Association of School Librarians
- American Association of School Librarians
The American Association of School Librarians (AASL) has been a division of the American Library Association (ALA) since 1951. Prior to that, school librarians were served by the School Library Section of ALA founded in 1914 which itself emerged from the Roundtable of Normal and High School Librarians which met first in 1913. The mission of the American Association of School Librarians is to advocate excellence, facilitate change, and develop leaders in the school library media field.
AASL released the [http://www.ala.org/aasl/standards Standards for the 21st-Century Learner] in 2007 to guide instructional programs in school libraries.
