TARGET: librarians of alternative schools

[Lawrence Newton <lwnewton@YAHOO.COM>]

Colleagues,

It is not (yet) official, but our school will almost
certainly be converted into an Alternative School next
year, for severe discipline problems.  I believe the
district will continue to support the library, and,
hopefully, me with it.

I would like to hear from those of you serving similar
schools.  Ours will be elementary, grades 2-6, but I'd
like to hear from secondary folks, too.

Please tell me how your Alternative status affects:

   -Library instruction
   -Collection development
   -Circulation policies
   -Reading incentive programs, like Accelerated
Reader
   -Anything else you wish to share with me

TIA!
