"The school library provides information and ideas that are fundamental to functioning successfully in today’s information and knowledge-based society. In 1999 the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) published the globally important Unesco School library Manifesto, which states: Most recently, school libraries have been defined by two major guidelines documents: Information Power (1988) and Information Power II (1998). Hundreds of new school libraries were expanded and renovated during this time. Most notable during this time was the Knapp School Libraries Project which established model school library media centers across the country. As a result, the 1960s were one of the greatest periods of growth and development for school libraries due to an increased flow of money and support from the private sector and public funding for education. NDEA was a response to Sputnik and Title III of NDEA provided financial assistance for strengthening science, mathematics, and modern foreign language.

The later part of the 19th century marked the beginning of the modern American library movement with the creation of the American Library Association (ALA) in 1876 by a group of librarians led by Melvil Dewey. Library services to schools have evolved since the late 1800s from public or state library book wagons to informal classroom collections to what we know today. A report that reported similar conclusions was compiled by Michele Lonsdale in Australia in 2003. In addition, a study conducted in Ohio revealed that 99.4% of students surveyed believed that their school librarians and school library media programs helped them succeed in school. The major finding of these studies was that students with access to a well-supported school library media program with a qualified school library media specialist, scored higher on reading assessments regardless of their socio-economic statuses. Researchers have demonstrated that school libraries have a positive impact on student achievement through the more than 60 studies that have been conducted in 19 U.S. A school library serves as the center and coordinating agency for all material used in the school." is automated, and utilizes the Internet for information gathering." School libraries are distinct from public libraries because they serve as "learner-oriented laboratories which support, extend, and individualize the school's curriculum.
