Good News!

Believe it or not??? I was contacted yesterday by Cherry Lake Publishers and I won a drawing for 8 new titles for D.C. Virgo Middle School. They were shipped today! Be on the lookout for books about athletic shoes, islands, golf, skateboarding, video gaming, cell phones, vision, and marine biology.

New Books Arrived!

Stop by and see the first wave of new books ordered for the Cougar Library! The new books include fiction & nonfiction. If you like Math, check out some of the new books directly related to that subject.

AASL Conference

I just returned from the AASL (American Association of School Librarians) Conference, which was held in Charlotte. I had a great time meeting authors, gathering new ideas and collecting books to donate to D.C. Virgo's Media Center Collection! Stop by the media center to see the new titles.

I also had the opportunity to hear author, James Patterson, speak about his novels. This was very exciting. I look forward to using some of the ideas I learned in our media center!

New Book gift from Books Are Fun!

The Cougar Media Center received a new children's book by the beloved author, Dr. Seuss today from Books Are Fun! Be on the lookout for The Big Blue Book of Beginner Books. This book includes six Seuss stories in one book! This book will be located in the Easy Fiction area of the media center after it has been cataloged.

Donated Books

Today, the Cougar Media Center received two hardcover books from Ms. Spencer's student intern. Mrs. Nicole Ulmer donated Tempted and Hunted by P.C. and Kristin Cast. Thank you very much, Mrs. Ulmer!
