Power Libraries Project

The Power Libraries Project is a statewide project designed to bring recognition to the role that school library media programs and staff play in promoting student achievement. The focus is on developing and promoting quality school library media programs and practices that help students meet standards. The project is a cooperative project of the Central Colorado Library System and the Colorado State Library, funded in part by the Library Services and Technology Act.  

Research shows that well-staffed, well-stocked media centers can contribute to CSAP scores that are as much as 18% higher than in those schools without such programs.
