Name of Your School / Library / Organization:

I am a third-generation school librarian (yes, I proudly embrace the term "librarian") whose passions in teaching are information literacy, Web site evaluation, and utilization of a rich blend of print and nonprint sources. After school, I immediately begin my second fulltime job as a chauffeur for Megan, 13, and Max, 15, to activities such as volleyball, basketball, Science Olympiad, band activities, track, and, of course, friends' houses. I have two other "kids", but one is old enough to drive himself (hint: he's married to me), and the other is a little white Maltepoo named Oliver Twist whose chauffeuring needs are pretty limited to riding shotgun to the kids' events and the occasional trip to the grommer.

    Greetings Susan,

    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

    Lakewood, CO
