Another school year is coming to an end... and once again, we're moving chunks of our library. A couple thousand books will need to be boxed and moved... then unpacked... then other boxes packed up and moved elsewhere. Sigh.
Five years ago, at one point, I'd vowed never to move another box of books for the school. Currently, I have three boxes here at home that have to be brought in to the library, so you can see how well I've done on that pledge! Still, it's all worth it.
Except for the packing and moving, that is.
I'll be talking about this more as the summer goes on, I imagine, but the newest task our all volunteer library committee has is to start a middle school library. Yeah, that's right. Start another library. For middle school. From scratch.
Any ideas appreciated. Any books are, too. ( And, as always, a hat tip to all of you have sent books over the years (I can almost always cover media mail postage, by the way!). And if you've got a lot of middle grade lying around, be sure to get in touch!
Meanwhile... I'll be packing. Gah!

Oh, my gosh - if this isn't serendipity, I don't know what is...I am cleaning out my personal library and have shelves of middle grades I think I can pull together for you!
Well, that is a happy accident! I'll get in touch, Carol, and we'll figure out next steps!
