We promote the local branch of the public library--they offer great teen
programs--my school is grades 6-8. If the kids want books, they have to make
the effort to go there.

Hey! That's a good idea! Maybe some of the last days of library time can be
spent on a school library sponsored field trip to the local libraries to get
the kids started on their use of the PUBLIC library!
Our elementary students have similar field trips to study about local
history (museums and parks), service jobs (firestation, city hall, etc.),
production (peanuts, etc.) during the last days of school, so why not take
them to the Public library?
