School Library Data Project
A large body of research shows that a quality school library with good information resources and staffed by a qualified library media specialist can raise student achievement. The school library data project is an effort to collect quantifiable information about school library resources and use across state lines. Data collected includes circulation, student visits, collection holdings, staffing, policies and financial resources.

Idea for teacher librarian motto: "What gets measured gets funded." The premise being that in proposals or evaluations, if you can show that you can successfully measure progress or impact (outcome?) of your service, you are more likely to be recognized and funded.
