Interesting post from Kath Murdoch: Today, as I listened to and watched the medical staff at work, I was reminded of the importance of stopping to closely examine ourselves professionally. Taking time to reflect on our work is vital - but we need to be mindful of what it is we are looking for.
A planning/teaching team in healthy condition is a joy to be part of. Conversely, unhealthy teams who have not taken time to be mindful and caring of what they do and how they work together can miss golden opportunities for both student learning AND professional growth.
Students, teachers and the public turn to their librarians for help researching everything from technology to genealogy to homework help and lesson plans. Even if your library is equipped with subscriptions and memberships to top of the line databases and online journals, you've probably had to get creative during a patron's requested search for something unfamiliar.
