Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I work with an amazing bunch of kids in a small mountain town who love to ski, bike, hike and do all things outside. Everyday is a surprise and we can't get enough books in our hands. One of my favorite activities with my students is to share books in one of our 10 book clubs . Biggest challenge I face is trying to both model and infuse technology into our 21st century curriculum that will inspire our staff to open opportunities for their students.

Greetings Sherry,
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

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 TeacherLibrarian Network and came across you. I think you 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@jadaykennedy.com. I hope I hear from you soon.
Blessings,
