GEN: PTA volunteers & programs

[Jackie Church <WstWdMac@AOL.COM>]

Hello all -
While I am finishing my MLS degree requirements, I am also our elementary
school's PTA media center coordinator. This is my first year as such, and my
main task is to recruit and schedule volunteers.

What programs or activities does your PTA/PTO do for your media center that
you find helpful?
We do a volunteer appreciation tea at the end of the year, and the PTA gives
the library $1000 to buy books each year. There are other projects that
benefit the MC, such as the two book fairs held each year, but I was
wondering what other ideas are out there that you like and work well. (And if
there are any you DON'T like, I'd appreciate knowing about that, too, and
why. I know sometimes PTA's have the best intentions but push ideas that just
don't work.)

I will post a HIT if there is an interest.
Thanks!
Jackie
