Margaret Hayes Grazier (December 19, 1916 – July 9, 1999)[1] was an American librarian, educator, and published author in the field of Library and Information science,[2] who specialized in school librarianship. She worked as a school librarian at various high schools and, later in her career, as a professor of library science at Wayne State University. Grazier had developed a model to guide library media specialists to become fully immersed in the entire cycle of the student's learning process, everything from storytelling to planning and evaluating curriculum.[3] She was active in several important library organizations, including the American Library Association, and received awards for her contributions to her field of study.
