Josh Stumpenhorst @stumpteacher is directing a library revolution and evolution to Learning Commons at his school. And yes, they'll be flying drones in the library! Let's talk about the focus groups and critical questions that are driving this transformation from a place where students "have to go" to a place where they "want to be." Josh also discusses the importance of literature and creativity in the library.
