Putting together and then regularly updating a policy and a development plan is part of the essential work of everyone who runs an effective secondary school library. This updated and revised Guideline Plus gives you all the basics you need to do both jobs. It takes you carefully through the steps needed to produce a realistic and comprehensive policy and again gives you the route to produce a credible and meaningful development plan. The core text of the previous edition has been updated and the authors have included a range of new policies, new opening statements to policies and new development plans.

Further examples of policies and development plans are available exclusively to SLA members on the related page of the SLA's website: http://www.sla.org.uk/paperwork/
