Hi, I'm a public librarian working with teenagers curious about pathways to becoming a school media specialist in NYS. I have a Bachelors in Fine Arts, with some education coursework, and a Masters in Library Science, but did not specialize in School Media. Any advice would be appreciated.
English certification Hello. I would immediately get an English teaching certificate and any technology certifications you can. Librarians are teaching technology and research. Hille
I see you've asked this question on the sister board too. This is what I would recommend you to do.
