As librarians, we are personally energized as we design these new programs. I know that we feel that we are "winners" because we are working together, and we know that our students will be "winners" as they experience the wonderful resources and programs that are available to them at the public library. We thank SJRLC for giving us the opportunity to jointly meet to share and brainstorm ideas and programs that will benefit our students. It all starts with that first call. I encourage you to use one of the talking points to open the door of communication.

Last fall Clearview High School Librarian Jackie Gould and English teacher Michael Porter invited me to do a book talk for two honors junior classes. I had met some of the authors of the Printz awards at the ALA Conference in June, so I put together a PowerPoint and spoke about those books.

Nina Kemps, Rosa International Middle SchoolOver the past few years, I have communicated with the YA librarians at Cherry Hill Public Library. Today, I cannot tell you who made the first call, but I do know that first conversation between the school and public librarian is very important. The communication door must be opened if we are to address the goal of provided needed library services to our middle school student population.

Again, the public library collection matches the information need for many of these projects better than ours. My principal was able to obtain bus transportation for us. We are working on the details for these visits because we want to have the students prepared before the trip, we want them to be successful, and we want them to have a positive experience.
