Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I'm beginning my second year as Keith Valley Middle School's librarian. I'm responsible for promoting reading, and I love to offer activities, contests, and special events to bring students into the library. I also teach research skills and co-teach with subject area teachers to offer their students access to great resources. I think it's important for students to learn how to locate information through databases, and I'm working to educate the teachers and students of my school.

Greetings Lisa,
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
