The Urban Libraries Council Unveils Student Success Accelerator Interactive Map
The Urban Libraries Council (ULC) introduced the Student Success Accelerator, “an interactive map that showcases public libraries across the United States that are pioneering a national approach that for the first time brings local elected officials, school and library executives together and their collective resources for student learning in and outside the classroom.” The map comes out of the Leaders Library Card Challenge, “a national effort to have local leaders working together to get a library card into every student’s hand.”“When mayors, county executives, school superintendents and public library executives join forces, we can create opportunities that really benefit our kids,” says Karl Dean, incoming chairperson of ULC. “What can be better than children spending time in their local library, participating in fun educational programs and tutoring with access to smart, supportive library staff and resources in a safe environment.” For more information, read the press release.
