O Bem Estar dos alunos pode ser descrito como  “a sustainable state of positive mood and attitude, resilience, and satisfaction with self, relationships and experiences at school” (ACU, 2008, p. 5)
Resumo do artigo de Margaret Merga, resultado de investigação recente:
Concern about student wellbeing and related mental health is a global issue, and schools are increasingly expected to support student wellbeing. While the focus on libraries and wellbeing in research is more commonly on public libraries, school libraries can also play an important supportive role in this regard. Robust research evidence is needed from school library contexts to support targeted advocacy in order to enhance student wellbeing. This paper explores how school libraries may support student wellbeing by operating as safe spaces for young people, promoting and resourcing mental health and wellbeing initiatives, and supporting and promoting bibliotherapeutic practices and reading for pleasure. It then highlights implications for future research to support the development of a sound, research-supported evidence base for advocacy moving forward.
