Another Successful Fair in the Books!

Despite the harsh weather Mother Nature threw at us, another successful book  fair concluded Monday, November 5 at Brookhaven Elementary.  The library raised about $1500 for new book and equipment.  Once again, I am extremely thankful for the support teachers, parents, students and the school administration gives our library.  It is most appreciated.

I have asked teachers what materials they will need to help them meet our new Next Generation standards.  Nonfiction to support our curriculum is a critical need that book fair funds can begin to address.  In addition, I have a very large wish list replete with titles I think will appeal to our avid readers.  

Finally, I would like to purchase a large screen TV for the library.  While at first glance this may seem extravagant and unnecessary, having a new television will enable us to better use the library for instruction and staff development activities.  I will be looking for a set with ample HDMI inputs that will allow us to use the television as a giant monitor.

Thanks to everyone, again, for your support!
