Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
This is my 8th year teaching on a fixed schedule in a K-5 elementary school of about 55O students in a region with 3 other elementary schools. I've been on the state's book award selection committee several times and find this a wonderful opportunity to connect with others in the field. As part of this I have to read over a hundred chapter books a year. LM NET and other library related listservs are my lifeline. I love being a resource and hope that I can be a resource as part of this group as well.

Greetings Pat,
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
