Name of Your School / Library / Organization:

I am a library media specialist at a school district in southeast Michigan where I must split my time between the high school (3 days/week) and the middle school (2 days/week). After teaching high school English in western Michigan in the 1970s I left teaching for the world of marketing and public relations for 20 years. Eleven years ago I regained my sanity and came back to teaching. In 2004 I took over a middle school/elementary library position while completing my masters in library and information science. You could say I'm a late bloomer since it took me nearly 40 years to finally find my true niche in life.

    Greetings Lenore,

    I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight. If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

    Sincerely,

    Mike McQueen
