Welcome to the library's newsletter. I share news at the end of each nine weeks. As always, let me know if you have suggestions!

The final pieces of our redesign are coming together. Stop by and see our new wall art and circulation desk!

On November 22, we hosted author Sharon Draper virtually in the PRMS Library. Ms. Draper is the author of Blended, Stella by Starlight, Tears of a Tiger, Fire from the Rock, Out of My Mind, and more. Her most recent work is a sequel to Out of My Mind, called Out of my Heart, which was released on November 9 and it currently the top circulating title in our library. Several students had the opportunity to ask Ms. Draper questions about her books and writing process. This event was provided through Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures.

Reading classes reviewed books they read in the first quarter in our online catalog and participated in a BreakoutEDU challenge to test their library knowledge.

8th grade social studies C/E classes continued working on their NHD projects, using NoodleTools to log and tag their citations, take notes, and begin annotations.

Our library program is most effective when we work together. My library standards are aligned with your PA Core standards to encourage maximum collaboration. I would love to plan and teach lessons with you involving research, literacy, and technology. E-mail me or stop by if you'd like to discuss ideas.
