CHICAGO – More than seventy concurrent sessions recorded at the AASL National Conference & Exhibition in Phoenix are now available for view on the American Association of School Librarians’ professional development repository, eCOLLAB. With these additional resources, eCOLLAB now offers 400 on-demand elearning opportunities for members of the school library profession.

Topics of sessions captured during the conference, themed "Beyond the Horizon,” include introductions to facets of AASL’s new National School Library Standards, raising the level of learning in school libraries, and addressing the needs of a new generation of students.

Access to AASL17 sessions is provided to AASL members as a benefit of their membership, and members will retain access as long as the sessions remain in the eCOLLAB library.  Non-member, full conference attendees may view AASL17 sessions complimentary through January 31, 2018.
