Re: Collection Development: K-7 or K-8 LMCs

Hi LM-NETters,

        What is 1 thing you (or staff and you) have successfully done in
the LMC to meet the curriculum needs of the middle school age students?

        What is 1 thing you (or staff and you) have successfully done in
the LMC to meet the interest needs of the middle school age students?

        I feel that the needs and developmental stages of the K-5
population are much more common and are, therefore, better met.  Since
the middle school age students are still in "elementary school," I
experience difficulty when trying to meet their need for more mature
subject matter.  Also, the LMC is small and has that primary/elementary
look.  Help.

Thank you,
