chapter 6: teachers and reading instruction What Library Resources Are Available and How Are They Used? Libraries, both within the school and in the local community, provide a range of reading materials and other resources from which students can choose books for their own learning and enjoyment. Because libraries expand students’ opportunities to access a variety of materials and can promote positive reading habits and attitudes, PIRLS 2006 asked a series of questions about students’ access to and use of libraries. Exhibit 6.20 contains reports about school and classroom libraries. In a number of countries, principals reported that more than 95 percent of the schools attended by fourth-grade students had libraries. Principals reported 100 percent of students attending schools with libraries in Latvia, Moldova, the Russian Federation, Singapore, Slovenia, and the Canadian province of Alberta. On average internationally, school principals reported that most fourth-grade students (89%) attended a school with a library, and for many students (71%), their school library had more than 500 books. Teachers reported that approximately two thirds of the students (69%) had libraries in their classrooms (averaging 52 books and 3 magazines). About half the students (55%), internationally on average, could borrow books from their classroom library to take home. Exhibit 6.21 shows the percentage of students whose teachers took or sent them to a library other than the classroom library according to four response categories: every day or almost every day, once or twice a week, once or twice a month, or never or almost never. Internationally on average, teachers reported that 50 percent of the students were given opportunities for library visits at least weekly (8% daily and 42% once or twice a week), and another 32 percent were given opportunities for visits at least monthly. Eighty percent or more of students in Denmark, Iceland, Moldova, New Zealand, the United States, and the five Canadian provinces visited a library other than the classroom library at least once a week. On average internationally, 40 percent of the fourth-grade students reported borrowing library books on a weekly basis, and another 28 percent reported borrowing library books once or twice a month. 229
