Dorcas Hand - Biographical

I have been at Annunciation Orthodox School for 22 years, since 1990, and active in ALA/AASL since 1978.  As editor of Independent School Libraries: Perspectives on Excellence (Libraries Unlimited, 2010), I collected 21 essays by 19 authors about all aspects of managing a strong independent school library. In February, 2011, I took the beginnings of this presentation to the National Association of Independent Schools conference.  In June, 2011, we took an early version to the ALA Annual conference in New Orleans.  Check out my website, Strong School Libraries.
