A few years ago I took the photograph that forms the background to my blog. It reflects the peace I feel when I watch the waves wash over the porous rocks at the beach. The sea has molded and shaped the boulders into fascinating forms over many years. Designing learning spaces is a complex process requiring researching and the providing of evidence to re-‘imagine’ an enriching, educational environment.  Molding, shaping and creating the library culture goes hand in hand with designing a purposeful and pleasant physical school library place in the ever changing landscapes of pedagogy. I passionately believe that teacher-librarians have a role to play in shaping a reading culture that washes over the minds of young people and helps shape them into thinking, inquiring and empathetic individuals who have the confidence to transform society into a better place for everyone.
