Gilbert Elementary School works on a flexible schedule. Flexible scheduling is the most effective way of providing library services when they are most needed. Classes and students do not visit the library media center at arbitrary times. Instead they visit the library media center when they need information or the services the library media program provides. Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning presents flexible scheduling as an essential program aspect for school library media centers.
