Our Library Is Now Organized Like A Book Store
No more Dewey Decimal and the shelves are not just organized alphabetically.
Nonfiction Is Organized Into Subjects
Images, dots and words to make it easy for students to find books.
We Are Also Spicing Up The Shelves By Adding Over 800 New Books To Our Library
With the new organization and tons of amazing new books, our students will be even more excited to read a variety of nonfiction and fiction. We are confident this will increase circulation, expand their reading interests and abilities, and make the library a place that they want to visit even more than before.
In a few weeks we will be kicking off our "Spice Up The Shelves - Funds For Books" campaign. This will be a chance for our community to put even more new books into our library and into the hands of our students, teachers, and families.
Thank you for all of your support with this project and throughout the year.
"Spicing Up The Shelves" is going to make a wonderful difference at Van Meter.
Greta wanted all of the students and teachers to choose new books for the library.
She created a survey and gave it to over 350 students and teachers at Van Meter.
She had so much fun collecting the surveys from everyone.
From the results, Greta created a list of authors, subjects, and titles that would be perfect to add to our collection.
