This week the library is drawing names from the book reviews that were submitted during Teen Read Week as part of All Hallow's Read, where books are given out instead of candy. There will be a name drawn everyday this week so listen up during announcements. Best of Luck!

The First Student Book Review is Here!

If you visited the site last month we took a poll asking if students had a library card and how often they used it. From the results that came in it seems like we have students that not only have a library card, they use it quite a bit!
It's good to see students using the site and even more exciting when students take the time to join in and make their opinions known.
I was so excited to get the first student book review submitted that I made it into a short video.
Enjoy!

October is National Stop Bullying Month

Bullying is a serious problem. Chances are, you have experienced bullying, whether you were bullied, you bullied someone else, or you saw someone being bullied.
If you feel mistreated, misunderstood or isolated and think you have no place to turn, know that you are not alone and there is hope. Find out how you can get help if you are being bullied or how you can avoid bullying others.
Every one of us are different.  We can STOMP Out Bullying by being tolerant, kind and respectful and stand up for each other. We all dance to a different drummer – but the reality is we are ALL the same because we are ALL people. No one deserves to bullied for any reason!
If you want to learn more we have a selection of books on display on top of one of the bookcases in fiction.
Take a look at life through someone else's eyes and check out these books.
