Ace the 2026 Praxis School Librarian (5312) Challenge – Unlock Your Future as a Library Legend!

Active participation of users with library services is best described by user engagement. It means patrons don’t just access resources; they actively interact with programs, use services, provide feedback, and even help shape offerings. This ongoing, reciprocal involvement shows how connected and invested users are with the library. Curricular relevance focuses on aligning resources with classroom needs, a makerspace is a hands-on creation area, and access equity centers on fair access for all—none of these capture the ongoing, participatory relationship between users and library services in the way engagement does.
