ELEM: Core Book List

[Eileen Thompson <EileenT504@AOL.COM>]

Hello LM_NETTERS,
I've been a member of a new elementary school planning committee since
October. We've completed the plan for the building and are now working on
interiors, curriculum delivery systems, and lots more. It will be a multi-age
type school (specifics yet to be planned), high tech., learner centered.... I
have been asked to develop a core list of books to purchase for the media
center. I also want to include technology in this list. I plan to contact a
couple of book jobbers, consult with the other media specialists in my
district, refer to Children's Catalog. Can anyone offer any additional
advice. I've never done this before and feel I need all the help I can get.
Please respond directly to me if you have had any experience with this
wonderfully exciting challenge!
