This has been a program that has seriously reduced the use of the library on my campus. I used to have over 3000 circulations a month in my high school library. This year circulation is about 1000 a month. Our students have gone from reading full books to an article every once in a while. What is this doing to our educational value?

after faculty meetings, please encourage the teachers to clean up the tables in the library. I come in the following day to empty bottles, trash, tissues, even food. I usually spend a good portion of my morning cleaning up.
