The circulation numbers are up, the conversations are so great, and the kids are reading things they have never read before. All of our books are being checked out now with the reorganization. <br /><br />Let me know if you ever have more questions...I would be happy to help you out.<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend, ShannonShannon McClintock Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204029519489158065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370513240342622404.post-58404497994810240242012-10-10T13:15:28.021-05:002012-10-10T13:15:28.021-05:00Fantastic.

It is making such a difference in the nonfiction too...I love it.<br /><br />The first thing we did last spring was weed a HUGE amount of books so our collection was not quite as overwhelming. We now have around 4000 books in our elementary. <br /><br />Hope all is great with you, friend.
