Dolly, I have to say that we have been very fortunate in our school library. New Mexico voters voted for funding for libraries in the state that included school libraries. Plus our local district has given us chunks of money. We have a really great librarian who asks for teacher input as to what books we want in our library. Our school does use the AR program, so of course she orders the AR quizzes as well (from a different fund), but we now have a huge selection of fiction as well as nonfiction material for our students. It always amazes me that most of my students would rather pick a nonfiction book than a story. We've also been given money in the past by our parent group, but not much in recent years (new group of leaders).
