  • Greetings Carrie,

    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

  • That I will have to fax to you-- got a number for me?
  • Laura's presentation was really good-- I've got the handouts, so I'll send them over to you. I also picked up good info at the Poetry Slam 101 and Anime workshops that I hope to use, but other than that... a little disappointing for the school librarians once again.
  • Hey Carrie!
    I didn't see you around the CAL conference this year; did you skip it?
    What's up with you out yonder where you are?
  • Hi Carrie,
    I hope you are able to come to the CAL conference this week. If so, be sure to come to the Saturday 1PM session for school librarians--the CASL association.

    I work for CAL/CASL and love to see the library community gathered!
  • Busy busy busy... and somehow, not missing the schoolwork at all! I'm really enjoying the job right now. I'm taking on more and more, too, although no teaching classes on a regular basis as of yet, thank goodness. That is still very much an epidemic in this district.

    We should get some of the other old classmates on here!
  • Hi Carrie --Welcome to our Colorado school librarians group! Sounds like you have a big job! I am also a district coordinator - but not directly responsible for day to day programs/operations at any of the individual schools.
  • Hey Carrie! Glad you found me. :) How's this year treating you so far? It's completely weird not having homework; every night I feel like I'm forgetting something...
  • Love to be your friend:-)
