The steering group for the Aotearoa School Libraries Research Project has continued to meet regularly over the year, working closely with NZCER to ensure progress with this important mahi.
We have reviewed the draft survey report and provided detailed feedback to NZCER that will help shape the final version. Next week, December 11, we are excited to be meeting with NZCER in Wellington to finalise our feedback on the survey findings and case studies in the draft report. Additionally, the Steering Group will work together to plan a release timeline, along with supporting materials, scheduled for early Term 1, 2025. We look forward to sharing the outcomes of this mahi with members and sector stakeholders early next year. You can find previous updates about this project here. Find out more about our project here.
