She covers how they are very often misunderstood by K-12 librarians (and teachers, administration, and other K-12 educators), the result of which is significantly diminished effectiveness in our educational system. With a strong focus on Fair Use in a digital environment, Gretchen covers new situations that have arisen with new technology.
