    Greetings JoAnn,

    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

    Teacher Librarian at McLain HS

    In regards to collaboration between school and public librarians...Yes! we do collaborate during the school year. Cherry Creek High School and Glendale Public Library are constantly collaborating regarding high school students and their academic/social needs.
    I also want to say that summer reading programs are fabulous and a wonderful collaborative project. Collaboration takes time and energy so collaborate as much as you can.
