My Project

I am the librarian for two elementary schools, both filled with creative, fun, kids who like to read.

They come from a variety of socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, but in the library, they share excitement over new books and information.

According to KidsCount, 43% of students in our district are eligible for free and reduced lunch – 7 out of 15 elementary schools are Title I – and 15% receive special education services. Many students cannot get to the public library, so their checkouts at the school library are their main access to books.

I love when a book finds a champion, and word-of-mouth leads to a long holds list. I love when kids ask if they can do a book recommendation before I start a lesson. I love when I find out from them about titles I’ve never heard of. I love when a student who isn’t necessarily a voracious reader perks up when they hear about a book their peer loves and then comes to me later to ask for it.

Which brings me to this request. The kids LOVE graphic novels, and I can’t keep a lot of them on the shelves because of the LONG holds lists. In the past couple of months, students have done book talks on several series that either weren’t as popular in the past, or that we don’t have in the libraries at all, and now their classmates are clamoring for copies.

Can you please help add volumes of beloved series that will expand my kids' options for fun books that will make them WANT to read? By having as many entertaining books as possible available to them, my students - especially the reluctant readers - can choose reading as their go-to free-time activity.
