At the 2008 ALA Midwinter Meeting, AASL launched the second year of its 
longitudinal survey, "School Libraries Count!" All K-12 schools - public and 
private - are invited to participate.  The study gathers basic data about the 
status of school library media programs across the country, which AASL will use to 
develop advocacy tools to support school libraries at the local, state, and 
national levels.
  This year's survey has an additional question that solicits information about the 
role of social networking and other electronic tools used in instruction by library 
media specialists and their classroom teacher collaborators.
  The success of this survey depends on your participation! Please fill out this 
brief survey and help us get the word out to your colleagues!
  The survey will be open through March 15, 2008, at http://www.aaslsurvey.org.
