Our LMC is headed by our certified Library Information Specialist, Chad Laster. Laster received a B.A. in English from ETSU before later earning a M.S.Ed. in Library Media from the University of Nebraska at Kearney. The UNK library program is one of an elite group accredited by both ALA/AASL and NCATE! In addition, he participated in several study abroad programs in remote areas of the world such as the Himalayan Mountains, The Amazon Jungle, and the rain forests of Central America. Combined with a Masters Degree in Instructional Technology, Mr. Laster brings a dynamic "media" approach to this world of literature and research. He believes that books are not obsolete but can be used with technology to integrate informative research techniques that will offer CHS students an advantage during their post-secondary education.
