Abstract

Dr Carol Gordon reflects on her valued colleague, Dr Ross Todd, and his impact on our profession. She champions his belief in the crucial link between research and practice in school librarianship and the ongoing relevance of his evidence-based practice trilogy: evidence FOR practice, evidence IN practice, and evidence OF practice. Dr Gordon, in this article, charts the progression and development of Dr Ross Todd’s ideas across his various projects.
