WE DID IT--> 1500 Books!

Hello SCLA! First and foremost I'd like to congratulate everyone on a great year in the SCLA Library. Last week we passed our goal of 1500 books circulated. Now, given the amount of students we have, divided by the amount of books we checked out, it averages to 5.2 books per student. That is amazing! I can't wait to break that record next year...

All of the books are due May 31st which means you have some time. Once May 31st hits, I have to send out the final overdue notices. Please return your books, guys! We need all books returned so others can enjoy them next year. If your book is not returned, the overdue notice will contain the price of the book should you choose to replace it.

SO BRING BACK YOUR BOOKS!!!!

Book of the Week Time Folks! Plus Library Updates



Greetings everyone! I'd like to first thank our seniors at SCLA for an awesome field trip to Vermont on Friday. We had more ice cream than I care to admit, but it was a wonderful experience and, despite some GPS troubles, we made it there and back in one piece!

Now, as far as our library goal for the year. Again, we set the goal at 1500 books circulated by the end of May. We only have 50 more to go! What does this mean? It means we are readers at SCLA. There are books in hand and I am constantly getting recommendations from everyone here. Keep up the good work and even if we miss our 1500 goal by one book I know that you have the drive and determination that inspires me each day I come to SCLA, so thank you!

ON to the Book-o-da-week...This one is a tear jerker...
