We a looking for donations to update our nonfiction library collection to suit the growing needs of the student population it serves. Almost all of our nonfiction titles are outdated and contain science/history information that is no longer relevant or accurate. We have recently done some weeding of these older books and are currently trying to replace them with eye-catching, up to date titles that explore exciting nonfiction topics in Science, History, Social Studies, and Geography. Our school does not have the funding for designated Social Studies, History, or Geography classes so our goal is to provide our kids with a library that has access to resources on these subjects with close attention to the diverse backgrounds of our students. Many of the kids who attend our school, being Latinx or other POC, need a collection that represents their cultures in a positive light which provides educational resources that explore historical figures, countries, and histories they can see themselves in! We hope to create an in depth library curriculum that surveys nonfiction research to help foster lifelong learners with a curiosity in both the STEM and Social Sciences.
