Places To Be

Whew - a lot going on!

Flight was fantastic and our three trips to the Opera in Austin last year were fantastic! Had 44 people on the last group - it rocked....

Students also wrote and received a grant from ACE - using it for a field trip day to Book People (downtown) and Half Price Books (Lamar) to buy cool new books for the library. Nancy and I kicked butt and got them processed in time for summer check out - so hope they're all enjoying them!

I read through the first 12 of the Dresden Files (J Butcher) and loved the Chicago wizard and his activities. Should be great to sell to teen boys!

In addition - I finally ordered almost all of the Laura Bush Library Foundation grant monies for books. Still have to work on the magazines - that's next! TY LBF for supporting our school!

Am currently attempting the "Follett Challenge" with a movie titled Guerilla Marketing @ Your Library. I have also just completed a sxsw.org  -  interactive - proposal titled the same. Hopefully I'll get to present! Plan to bring a few students with to man the tech :)

Hot hot hot here in Texas...'tis summer after all
