American Association for School Librarians. (2009). AASL’s L4L Sample School Librarian Performance and Evaluation System The Learning4Life school librarian evaluation system
parallels Charlotte Danielson's domains for teacher evaluation but replaces her second domain with the Library Environment. All elements represent principles of best practice in teaching and school librarianship. The Learning 4 Life performance and evaluation system is designed for both self-assessment and job performance evaluation.

COMMENTS OF INDIVIDUALS
“I had my evaluation completed by my principal and I was needing a few things: Conduct a student/parent/teacher survey Develop a 3-year media specialist plan that will be a living document
and will be updated each school year Find an evaluation for the library program (Hawkins, K. (2013). AAIM
Listserv)”
What is my three-year plan? What evidences or artifacts do I provide?
