(Please- excuse me for failing to list hours and events the last two weeks. I attended a wonderful American Association of School Libraries conference Oct. 25-28, and came home with lots of ideas I'll be using to enrich our library. However, with getting ready to go and catching up afterwards, I forgot to do my weekly blog entries.)
