My family moved to Singapore last July from Kentucky. This is our first time living overseas. I'm stepping out of the classroom in the fall of 2009 to become our school librarian. I am very excited about the change! I'm excited about the challenge, but will need a lot of guidance along the way!

Greetings Marjorie,
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

What a small world - Chicago and Singapore! Where were you in Chicago? I hopscotched about, but started at Clinton (CPS) then worked in Glencoe and then finally Richmond (way up by the Wisconsin border) before heading overseas. Are you working here in Singapore?
Thanks so much for your kind offer of assistance.

Again, welcome;) Ann
I’m the blogger at “J. Aday Kennedy: A Writing Playground”. Every month I focus on a topic to help authors write and promote their writing. In April, the focus will be books and why they’re selected by librarians, and how they’re chosen and used by teachers and homeschoolers..
I was roaming the internet and came across your site. I think a librarian can give some insight into the types of books that interest students and schools. Would you be willing to be interviewed? If so, email me at author (at) jadaykennedy (dot) com. I hope I hear from you soon.
Blessings,
J. Aday Kennedy
