Showcase Your School’s Program at the Library November 16, 2007

Filed under: Uncategorized — splchildrens @ 4:05 pm

These are the latest winners from the Strong Elementary School’s Young Author Program. Each month the Children’s Department displays the winners of the Strong School Young Author’s Program at the library. When the next month’s winners are announced, our previous winners’ book are catalogued and placed in the collection. Children can see their books on the shelves next to those of famous authors they know and love. The winning authors can also search for their names under an author search in our online catalog. It’s a cool way to honor the children’s hard work and build self-esteem. The library sponsors a party for all winners at the end of the school year.

 
If your school has a program you’d like to showcase at the library, we’d love to hear about it. Post a reply to this post or contact the Children’s Department at 628-0947 X3.
