Abstract
School Libraries Supporting Literacy and Wellbeing (Merga, 2022) offers a timely and persuasive examination of the contribution of school library professionals to students' literacy development and holistic wellbeing. At a point when schools are navigating heightened accountability pressures alongside growing concern for young people's mental health, the text positions the school library as both pedagogical partner and pastoral space. This book will be of clear interest to practitioners, school leaders and researchers concerned with evidence-informed library practice.
