  • Greetings Alex,

    I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight.

    If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

    Sincerely,

    Mike McQueen

  • Thank you to both of you. I am very excited to be a part of the librarian community and all the resources it can offer and insight. While I am not a librarian yet I can see already the need to have a community like this to now make me a better teacher and some day a better librarian.
  • Hey, it is Mark from class. I really enjoyed your presentation today. See ya on Friday in Seattle.
