This study examine, changes in the pictures university students drew of their school library over time while taking a course focusing on explaining the importance of school libraries. The results revealed an increase in the tendency of pictures to depict librarians; However, even so, librarians featured in only 12 of the 32 pictures drawn by the students. Since the importance of librarians was a focus of the course, there appears to be a need to improve the curriculum.
