    Greetings Kristie,

    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

    You're welcome. The words "manage technology" kind of threw me. What exactly does that mean? If I think of something else that I forgot, I'll flip you another email today. Good luck.

    Hello! I find it interesting that you are a K-5 librarian, because just yesterday I was just talking to a principal in the Portland Public Schools, who told me that no elementary schools have librarians anymore. It got me very discouraged, as that is the age I want to work with the most. Maybe I should start looking for jobs up in Vancouver...?
