A Day With Follett...Look How They Get Ready For A New School Year Too!

Yesterday, I had one of the best days! I was in Illinois with my colleagues and friends at Follett.  We had a wonderful day planning, learning and working together.

In the afternoon, I was honored to speak to all of the Follett sales reps that were there for their annual meeting.  We are very lucky to have so many caring, creative and passionate people who care about our libraries, librarians and students.

Harvey Smith, who is a Follett rep in Texas, posted this tweet from their day together.  The reps met with 21 publishing houses to see al of the awesome new things coming out for libraries.

Molly Sullivan, who is a Follett consultant in several states, sent me this message to share her Capstone takeaway from that afternoon with all of the publishing houses.

I was so happy to see it was one of my new books from the Library Skills series I wrote with Cantata Learning and Emily Arrow!

In fact, the books come out in just 10 days on August 1!

You can find the series and all of the music, which is arranged and produced by Emily, on the Cantata Learning site here. 

It is an exciting time of the year as not only librarians, educators and communities get ready to go back to school.  Publishers, book companies and all of the amazing people they have working with them are getting ready to support and celebrating reading, learning and schools throughout the year too.
