More copies of this ISBN:Helping Homeschoolers in the Libraryby Adrienne Furness
Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Furness, a children and family services librarian at the Webster
Public Library, seeks to break stereotypes about homeschoolers and to
educate librarians about some of the major reasons parents choose to
homeschool their children. She gives librarians the information and
tools they need to develop policies, programs, and services that
support homeschoolers in their communities. The first half of the
book explores philosophies and trends in homeschooling and places
them in context, giving librarians enough knowledge to understand
homeschoolers' needs, along with resources and a vocabulary that will
allow them to approach homeschoolers with some confidence. The second
half of the book deals specifically with building library programs
and services for the homeschooling population. The book includes many
profiles of homeschooled students and their parents, along with
writers, thinkers, librarians, and others active in the homeschooling
movement.
