Reflection on my last post

I was thinking about my late-night post regarding the role of teacher-librarians (TL’s) and came to the conclusion that among their other roles they need to be a communicator and negotiator. The rationale behind this reflection is the fact is some classroom teachers can be territorial regarding their role as a classroom teacher and dare may I say it, at times insecure or have a very dominant personality.  Herring’s portrayal of the role of (TL’s) is commendable in a perfect world (Herring, 2007, p.28). There is a difference between rhetoric and reality as we carry baggage around with us, some more than others. However, this is only a personal opinion based on observation.
