The PLCC began with a one-off conference in 2018 in an effort to bring together the amazing enthusiasm and creativity of primary teacher librarians, to share the same space, swap ideas and resources, and to extend our professional learning networks by connecting with TLs outside our own Community of Schools. 

Annual conferences continued in 2019 - 2023 (with gaps, thanks Covid!) and were a full day of hands-on, participatory workshops. With each workshop led by new and experienced TLs from around the state, participants worked together to contribute to this bank of free, practical, relevant and readily applicable lesson material and library resources for a primary library. 

In 2023, the Advocacy & Action conference was the last conference planned. Instead, the PLCC will focus on offering free PD to TLs via the PLCC AH PD sessions, twice per term, as well as coordinating the Backpack Project which was launched in mid-2023. 

The PLCC will continue to support, connect and collaborate with teacher librarians across the country, and hopes you will continue to support, comment and share, always adding to the practical and professional value of this resource.
