My Project

The students that I get to interact with on a daily basis are energetic, happy, and love to learn! They love to visit the library and check out books, but also to use the library as a space to reset themselves, relax, and take a brain break as needed!

These materials will help students see that the library is more than just a place to check out books.

The library can be a place of solace, a place to reset when you are feeling stressed as well as a place to be yourself! These items would aid me in being able to provide brain breaks to the students in the form of puzzles, and make and take classes for students who really enjoy working with their hands. Lastly the display catalogs would help me display "If you liked _____, try this...." book recommendations!

My students and I would be eternally grateful for any donation that we receive toward this endeavor!
