This episode was originally recorded for the second season of School Library Connection's "One Lesson at a Time" podcast.

Ryan has so many great ideas on collaborating with teachers and bringing writing into the library to complement the reading and reasearch students do. Here he shares how he teaches students how to use research skills to add depth to their creative writing!
