| Resumo: | The purpose of this chapter is to explain the way in which teacher librarians’ professional development is occurring in Portugal, mainly since 2009 when the position of teacher librarian was legally created. Applicants for the position were not required to have initial instruction in school librarianship, meaning that it was necessary to guarantee professional development would provide a solution to the needs thus created. The School Libraries Network (SLN) annually elaborates and carries out a professional development plan, designed to meet the strategic goals and training needs of teacher librarians. The content of that plan is also determined by the weaknesses that are made evident through school libraries’ evaluation, as well as by the need to implement new guidelines or projects and changes that occur in the educational system. |
