I am a librarian in a K-4 school. This past November I was called in to the assistant principal's office. She had a Jump Magazine on her desk. She asked "You don't put this out do you?". I looked at the headings on the magazine---"how to keep a man". I asked her where the magazine came from. It was addressed to the school in care of me. I assured her that this magazine was not being displayed in our library and it must have been a mistake. However, I received a copy of the magazine again in December---this one created quite a stir with the secretaries---"bare naked" was in one of the titles. I finally called our district Library Consultant---and was told by her secretary she was also receiving the magazine. To make a long story short---seems the magazine was new and the publisher decided to send every school in our district a free subscription. I would like to suggest before subscribing to this magazine --- take a look. I know it is not intended for elementary (and maybe not some junior high kids). My niece in highschool has been receiving the copies I get at school. I asked for her rating of the magazine and she said it ranks somewhere between "OK" and "Lame".
