The document discusses various ways a school librarian can engage students in the library. It provides examples of using Google Forms for reader's advisory, having students create book spine poetry, developing graphic novels to report on research, and pairing students to create a mashup of different sports for a research project. The librarian advocates starting projects with a clear purpose and sharing resources with teachers to build partnerships. The goal is to make the library a place for interactive, creative learning experiences for students.
