We are busy in the library this year.  Thanks to my army of volunteers who 
helped input into our circulation system and shelve over 6,000 books in the 
fall!  

It is my goal to keep our library as current as possible with quality,library 
bound books.  Your continued support of our book fairs make this possible.  
With state budget cuts, it is the ONLY source of funding for our library.

Using money and credits earned from our book fair, I recently purchased many 
sets of non-fiction books to help fill gaps in our collection. Come check out 
our new books about the solar system, animals and geography! We also 
purchased a few much needed bean bag chairs. I am currently working on an 
order of fiction books requested by our students.  

My Friday Focus group of Jr. Librarians have done a fantastic job helping out 
and learning all the different tasks associated with running a library.  They 
also wrote some book reviews for our website.  Check them out under the Book 
Reviews link!

I am enjoying reading with your students each week and helping them find what 
interests them.  Stop by anytime to visit or check out a book.!
