Beyond being just a source for reference the trend towards the usage of library content and holdings for applied learning will continue to grow. Libraries are well-positioned to leverage their holdings, offer new and expanded services and products that support the application of skills to demonstrate mastery of concepts.”菲尔 - 浮士德，学术产品的副总裁盖尔金宝搏彩票金宝搏彩票

Librarians are experts at curating collections that support instruction and research.

“As the print to digital transition accelerates, K12 institutions and libraries push the boundaries of traditional textbook-based learning with digital content and scholarship, resulting in more hybrid and personalized learning environments. Combined with hardware initiatives like 1:1 and BYOD, K12 institutions will require products and services that are completely device and platform agnostic, while being flexible enough to meet the demands of the changing curriculum and supportive of ESSA and other legislation.”-Lemma Shomali, Director for K-12 Products, Gale.
