Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I work in Marketing at Shutterfly and we offer free, private classroom sites for elementary schools. The sites help keep parents connected to what's happening in the classroom through photos, videos, and information sharing. I'd like to learn more about the evolving role of librarians as I'm hearing that many are the early adopters in elementary school systems.

Greetings Jill
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
