ASK WHY?-Certified School Librarians - MAME

The Michigan Association for Media in Education (MAME) is the statewide school librarians association . We have created a PSA called "Ask Why?" to raise awareness among parents and school administrators of the need for certified school librarians in public schools. Joe Staley of the San Francisco 49ers, the son of a Michigan school librarian, is the spokesperson in our PSA. The "Ask Why?" PSA is 30 seconds in length and we would very much appreciate it if you would broadcast/distribute the PSA. Research has indicated that having a certified school librarian in a school has a significant impact on student achievement, and many parents and school administrators are not aware of that fact. This PSA will remind parents of schools without school librarians to "Ask Why?" and hopefully to work with school administrators to find ways to hire and rehire school librarians for the benefit of their students.


Thank you very much!
