Abstract	Over the last few decades, school libraries have undergone a tremendous transformation. The technological age has ushered in a new type of library where online databases are king for research, students are issued their own laptops in one-to-one districts, and the integration of technology into the school environment has become a major initiative in most schools. Consequently, librarians across the country have been faced with the idea that they must pivot to remain relevant in the school environment. Today the job of a school library professional looks very different from those of the past. These days, libraries have 3D printers, Raspberry Pi computers, laser engravers, and sewing machines available for students. Librarians provide Cricut machines and teach collaborative lessons with Bee-Bot robots and Makey Makey kits. School libraries are still the campus source for information and research, but now they are also emerging as community centers, safe spaces, and SEL (social-emotional learning) support locations.
