Thank you for helping to support our library program at Meadowview Middle School. Many things that librarians do to help support literacy occur behind the scenes. One of these things is repairing and processing books. \r\n I save money on new book orders by doing my own processing. This takes time to create and print the barcode labels and genre stickers, but it's worth it if it allows me to purchase more books for our students to read! Your generous donation allowed me to purchase more labels and label covers for our new books.\r\n Another unseen librarian task involves repairing books. Books are shoved into backpacks, dropped on the floor, etc. Spines come unglued after use and sometimes pages get torn. The supplies that were purchased with this donation allows me to repair these books and give them a longer life with our students.","fullyFundedDate":1736984693235,"projectUrl":"project/time-to-tidy-up-the-library/8995736/","projectTitle":"Time to Tidy Up the Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Faxon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1919976_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1693065421722","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/alicia-faxon"},{"teacherId":1919976,"projectId":8624585,"letterContent":"Your help with this project is so appreciated!
