HERE ARE A FEW THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN ON MY MIND


OVERDUE BOOKS

You might not know this but we have about 25,000 books in our collection.  That is a lot of books!  Each day we circulate close to 500 books.  All of those books unfortunately do not make it back to the library.  We mark lost/stolen/missing books almost daily.  Please make sure that your student brings back all of their library books in a timely manner.




READERS ADVISORY
Each day I strive to help students find just the right book for them.  I often suggest books that can be different than what they normally read.  I ask them to take on the challenge of trying something new.  I also encourage them to stop reading a book if they are not really enjoying it.  There are so many books (see above) in the library that we can try and find a good fit.


I hope that your student has enjoyed any book recommendations and that they continue to ask for a book that is a good fit for them.  Knowing students depend on me helps me keep up on reading and ordering books students want to read.
