The New York City School Library System (NYCSLS) is part of a state system that was set up to support the school library media programs of member public school districts and nonpublic schools. School Library Systems provide specific services and programs that support the learning process of students, teachers and staff. School library systems promote increased student achievement through the use of quality school library media resources, information and programs.

As part of our state mandate, the New York City School Library System participates in a Collaborative Collection Development (CCD) Program. To read the CCD plan, please click here: To find out more about the CCD collections, please visit the CCD Wikispace, where you will be able to find pathfinders for each of the funded collection subject areas: CCD Wikispace

By state mandate, the NYCSLS Council meets four times a year to advise on the implementation of the POS. This Wiki was set up to facilitate the communication of Council members. Council members consist of representatives of various constituencies with which the NYCSLS works. For more information, please see the links to documents on the NYCSLS Page: [|NYCSLS Documents]
