The purpose of this study was to examine elementary school library practices to determine if particular practices affected student learning. This study described the circulation practices, collection leveling practices, scheduling practices and collaborative practices between school librarians and classroom teachers in high performing and nonhigh performing elementary schools in Missouri school districts with an enrollment of 750-1,500. Data was collected via an online survey and analyzed using ANOVA and the constant comparative analysis method. Results of the study showed only one statistically significant difference between the high performing and non-high performing schools: High performing schools are more likely to allow students to visit the library to check out books during the school day than non-high performing schools.
