I have pushed 104 District purchased titles for 5-8 to all the elmenetary e-shelves.  These titles are non-fiction Science and Social Studies topics that will be great for kids to use for research projects.  Let me know if you have any questions.


I was asked to share the following with you from local author: Barbara Connor:

I am thrilled to have a book on the 2015-2016 NC Elementary Battle of the Books list (How to Steal a Dog).

I wanted to touch bases and let you know that I have recently relocated from Boston to North Carolina (Asheville). 

I’ve been doing school visits for over 20 years, something I very much enjoy doing. I was hoping that you might be willing to spread the word (via list serv or other means) to other North Carolina school librarians that I am here and anxious to begin scheduling some visits in my new state. 

There is information on website here:


Thank you (and thank you for the important work you do on behalf of young readers of North Carolina)
