(Re)centrality of the School Library in times of pandemic

Abstract

The suspension of onsite classes has required school libraries to improve their online presence in order to render their services more effective. The great challenge was to refocus their action project according to the new needs of students and teachers. In this context, the Pedro Seromenho School Library, at Escola Básica no. 2 in Lamaçães, developed a set of activities based on curricular coordination with the teachers of the classes along three main axes: support to new work practices, suggesting digital tools with tutorials; curricular coordination through activities in a virtual environment; and (re)centralisation of motivation for reading and writing, using multiple digital supports for learning.
