Do you need a cure for the rainy day blues?

Isn't it amazing how much the weather can affect our days?  All of this rain has certainly has an effect on our moods, not to mention our immune systems!  If you need a cure for your rainy day blues, check out these hot new high school books that we have in the library.  Stop by and snag one to transport you to a warmer, sunnier place, or perhaps to a place filled with danger and adventure. 

The Kindles are in the process of being put into our library catalog.  After that is completed, the next step will be to download books to the Kindles and catalog the books. 

Don't forget that you can come to the library and suggest a book that you would like to have on the Kindles!

Kindle Invasion

The process of getting the Kindle program up and running has begun!  Today I unpacked 30 Kindles and their covers and charged the Kindles.  Half of the Kindles are for the middle school and the other half are for the high school, and they are equipped with green leather covers.  We are excited to continue the process of getting the Kindles out to the students so they can be read, but we still have much work to do.  If you are anxiously awaiting the Kindles, come into the library and write down the title and author of any books that you want to suggest as Kindle books.  Stay tuned for more Kindle updates!

"...And the home of the brave!"

This week has been awfully dreary due to the rain, but patriotism is alive and well at Fairfield Middle School and High School!  Today at school, the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks was celebrated in several ways.  At the high school, students and staff observed a moment of silence in honor of the attacks.  At the middle school, students and staff participated in an assembly commemorating 9/11 with videos, readings, songs, and personal stories.  Here in the library, our showcases are demonstrating the patriotism found at the schools, and we have many books full of heartfelt stories, information, and photos relating to the attacks that so greatly affected the entire country.  To celebrate all of the wonderful places in the United States, we have a map in the library where students and staff can mark a place they've visited.  Come celebrate our great country by visiting the library and demonstrating your right and freedom to read!
