Analysis
Professional development is an ongoing process that must be maintained to stay current. I intend
to continue my development through taking courses, joining the ALA, becoming part of the
Harford County library email group, attending professional development sessions, working with
other librarians, and reading professional publications. I will also continue to add to my
knowledge of the new technology and resources available to students and staff.
The Edline page for ISTC 789 is a work in progress but is coming together. I have created a
Symbaloo page for general use for parents, students, and staff and am in the process of curating a
Symbaloo page for every grade level according to my mentor librarians suggestions. After the
Symbaloo pages have been completed, Ms. Gorman at Edgewood Middle School has offered to
help me put it together on the Edline page if I need guidance. Working with librarians who are
already in the field will be a great source of professional development.
The reflection paper for EDUC 717 is just one example of the many papers that I have written
over the course of the program with the necessary research using scholarly and professional
publications. I will continue to have access to professional publications through subscriptions
that I purchase and course work that I will continue to pursue. In addition, I intend to attend the
MASL conference next year.
