Tri-County librarian recognized with MSLA President's Award
"One of the beauties of working with people with different interests is that their ideas can be combined, said Ariel Dagan, library-media specialist at Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School. 
“I look at my surroundings and say, ’How can I create behavioral changes when I see something that’s missing,” said Dagan, who has worked in education since 1992 and arrived at Tri-County five years ago. 
The Norwood resident is originally from Jerusalem, and has since spent his life traveling back and forth, attending school in both Israel and the United States. After serving in the Israeli army, as is required of all citizens there, he attended the University of California-Berkeley and University of Rhode Island, earning a master’s degree in information studies. 
The Massachusetts School Library Association recently presented Dagan with the President’s Award, which is given to school librarians who over the course of one to five years make a significant impact on student learning."
