Abstract: A large district has some unique challenges when planning support for a reflective growth process around implementing the "National School Library Standards for Learners, School Librarians, and School Libraries." This type of setting typically has a wide variety of school demographics, budgetary constraints, school library staffing configurations, administrators' visions, faculty dynamics, and school librarians' learning curves to take into consideration when planning a large-scale rollout of the American Association of School Librarians (AASL) Standards. However, this type of setting also brings some unique opportunities. It has the advantages of an existing tight support network for school librarians, economy of scale for providing resources and professional development (PD), and central office staff with dedicated time and attention specifically for supporting school librarians in implementing the standards as part of a vision for world-class school libraries. This article will describe how the author's district, the Knox County Schools in Tennessee, has worked to leverage its strengths and support the AASL Standards in ways that may be adapted for school libraries in all kinds of districts across the country.
