| Title: | School Libraries Survey 2019 Report | Authors: | Ma, Lai; van Alphen, Manon; Moore, Naoise; McGuinness, Claire | Permanent link: | http://hdl.handle.net/10197/12989 | Date: | 30-Dec-2020 | Online since: | 2022-07-11T11:02:21Z | Abstract: | School libraries in Ireland have not been surveyed and recorded before. As of today, there is no official or unofficial number of school libraries in Ireland and we know little about their functions and provisions in primary and post-primary schools. The School Libraries Survey was conducted in collaboration with Children’s Books Ireland (CBI) and the School Library Association of the Republic of Ireland (SLARI) as an initial step to examine the situations of school libraries in the Republic of Ireland. The survey was open from 7th February 2019 until 22nd May 2019. The call for participation was disseminated using Twitter and the collaborators’ professional networks. Invitations were also sent by email to each school listed on the Department of Education and Skills website on 27th February 2019 and 15th May 2019. A total of 1138 responses were received, including approximately 785 primary schools and 353 secondary schools. | Type of material: | Technical Report | Keywords: | School libraries; Surveys; Literacy; Primary schools; Secondary schools; Funding | Language: | en | Status of Item: | Not peer reviewed | This item is made available under a Creative Commons License: | https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ie/ |
