Where Our Library Books Come From
The district money usually buys picture books.
Rotary money focuses on non-fiction.
Barnes & Noble money buys student and teacher requests, replacements for damaged/lost books, next in a series and special topics.
Scholastic money goes for current chapter, graphic novels or world records.
The Library Support Group purchases Iowa Children’s Choice, Newberry, Caldecott and Goldfinch books.
Adopt a Teacher money varies. It enables Mrs. Fleming to buy books for the library from independent book stores and then get reimbursed, or to order from Follett.
