After several student requested sad books, we created a display of books that just might make you tear up! Warning – read these tearjerkers with a box of tissues nearby!

Mock Newbery 2019 Zine
Just before winter break, our Mock Newbery 2019 elective made a zine to celebrate the end of the class! Students worked off of specific books they had read that inspired them, general feelings about reading, and some even created things like word puzzles using the titles of the finalists. A HUGE thank you to ‘zinester’ Emma Karin Eriksson, who came and gave an introduction to zines, and helped facilitate our zine workshop!
Native American Heritage Month Display
November was also Native American Heritage Month! – a month honored to recognize the significant contributions the first Americans made to the establishment, and growth of the U.S. We displayed several books about Native American history, as well as by and about Native American characters (both fictional, and in history!)
Zen Autumn Coloring
We provided zen autumn coloring sheets to our middle school library patrons – the perfect activity for relaxing, and decorating our space! The beautifully colored autumn leaves were taped up in the library.
Election Day Display
With Election Day on November 6, we displayed books on electoral history – all month! Books included titles about the constitution, voting rights & making a difference through civic participation.
