Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I am the middle school librarian at the UN International School. Our school is a k-12 independent school founded by UN parents 60 years ago. We have approximately 1400 students, so we are the equivalent of a small school district. We are in a vertical building environment on the East River and also have a small Queens campus. Middle School for us is grades 5-8.;our library serves grades 5-12. I want to become a better techie in the school/library environment and make a more interative educational environment for our students.

Greetings Vivian,
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
