Hi all:
At our JH/HS circ desk, I have an assortment of lotions and hand sanitizers
(because everybody seems to have a different favorite scent and the guys mostly
don't want any scent), bookmarks in a 4-column display, and a word of the day
calendar that usually has words that the students are not familiar with and lead to
some interesting discussions. I'm not sure that these are interesting items (and
definitely aren't unusual) but they work with our students to give them something
to do while waiting at the desk for their turn.
Enjoying this thread,
Judi Chelekis,
who recently finished reading Teen, Inc.(good read for middle school); Patterson's
The Final Warning (ok); Evolution, Me, and Other Freaks of Nature (another good
read for discussions); and ttyl (which I found very difficult to follow, sadly,
making me feel:-( old ).

A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is
but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy, or perhaps both. Knowledge will forever
govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm
themselves with the power which knowledge gives.
