    Greetings Colleen,

    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

    Hi Colleen,

     

    I just applied for the elementary librarian position at your school in Dhaka.  I hope I get to meet you someday! I'm new to the profession and eager to get some experience.  I'd enjoy learning about some of the pros and cons to working at an international school.

     

    I'm originally from Oregon although I haven't lived there for a number of years.  I had a friend in college whose parents lived in Puyallup.  She said it was beautiful there.

     

    Take care,

     

    Amber

    Welcome. I'd like to say how impressed I was on your circulation in the Lower School Library and would like to talk to you more about what titles were most popular.
