Lower School Library News

Hello Lower School families,

I'm excited to be starting my third year at Brimmer! This month, my primary focus has been on library orientation activities (book care, call number identification, etc.) with all grades. My goal is to help our students navigate not only the Brimmer library, but also the public library.

My other focus has been preparing for the author visit that happened last Thursday! Elyse Seltzer (the Middle/Upper School librarian) and I have been planning to bring local author/illustrator Raúl the Third to our school since last spring. He came just in time to kick off Latinx Heritage Month.

New and returning families, please take a look at our monthly reading challenge information below! All students are welcome to participate. Families can fill out a paper form (available in the Lower School Library) or record their child's reading via this link.

Here's to a great year!

Ms. Rosellini

Starting next week (September 28), we will be opening the Lower School Library after school several days a week so that families can check out books! Come visit Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 3:00-3:30pm.

• I grew up in Indiana, but have also lived in Canada, Germany and Spain.
  
• I have been a librarian since 2011.
• My favorite part of being a librarian is seeing the joy on a student's face when they find a book that they love.
• Besides reading, I enjoy singing, walking in nature and spending time with my family.
  
• My favorite genres are historical fiction and fantasy.
