budget/books

[Marge Strandell <RStrandell@AOL.COM>]

I am spending my budget for the first time this year in a middle-school library and 
am concerned about materials for the reference area in terms of spending the money 
on books, CD's or using on-line programs.  Can anyone give me some guidelines as to 
what you do in your library or are doing in your middle-school library reference 
area?
Have you purchased sets of Almanacs, Atlases, dictionaries/what type and who is a 
good source for these?

Thank you,
