Joseph Landor, the recipient of the elementary division award, is the library information specialist at Germanshire Elementary School in Memphis, Tenn. As a first year school librarian, Landor took the initiative to revitalize Germanshire’s school library program. He introduced new information technology, including free online resources such as electronic databases, video libraries linked to learning indicators and the Common Core State Standards and instructional programs. Landor also purchased over 80 e-books and provided students unlimited access to the materials at school and at home. Further, the library program houses several educational software programs and the library’s website now includes numerous links to websites that are grade- and skill-specific for students, staff and the community.
