    Greetings Barbara,

    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

    What are your favorite books to read? I'm one of the few librarians that doesn't read constantly. I USED to, but I spent 20 years of reading hours of student papers every night as a LA teacher so the last thing I wanted to do for fun was read. Now I'm in the library and get to catch up.

    In the past few years, I've been writing. One book was recently published and several others will be out soon.
