Updating Professional Development Resource Library

This summer we rearranged the resource library.

Now, some of you may be saying, "I didn't know we had a resource library!"

The books previously located on the counter behind the mailboxes at Central were moved to the shelves opposite Peggy Rick's desk. Many of the books previously on the shelves were quite dated so we donated them to the recycling center. The books are now arranged primarily by subject matter and include resources for teachers working in preschool through school aged.

One of the shelves has the Reggio Emilia resources. Amazingly enough (at least to me), there is a list of resources that have been purchased over the last two years. A number of these books are currently not on the shelf and my sincere hope is that you have these and are using them. (There is no formal check out system for the resources; we'll stick with the honor system :) ).

However, I am looking to purchase some additional resources and before moving forward with that, I want to make sure that we still do have the books I think we have.

To that end, could you please either leave a comment here or email me to let me know if you have one of these books and DO IT NOW. Thanks. Also, if there are any resources you think would be a valuable addition to our professional development library, let me know.
