Visit the library in Building D, Room D102 this month to check out a wrapped book without knowing the title. Choose a book based on clues written on the cover. When you return your book, you can tells us what you thought by "rating your date." Participants will be entered in a raffle to win a prize. We hope you love these reads just as much as we do! Thank you to everyone who donated to our book drive! We received 418 books this year. The books were dropped off at District 214 yesterday and they were very happy to receive these donations. Thanks again!

Check out the flyer below for more details on the Thanksgiving food drive that One Book, One Harper is sponsoring and donate!  We had a great turnout for Banned Books Week this year! We were able to promote the right to read by displaying diverse novels that have been banned and hosting a Guess the Banned Book Contest. The two banned books in the Guess the Banned Book Contest were Habibi and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, both guessed by two students!     We created book trailers to promote diverse novels, (still viewable at the links below). Two Boys Kissing The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian The Kite Runner The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time The Color Purple We had Kurt Hemmer's thought-provoking presentation on Allen Ginsberg's Howl and Other Poems and he had us thinking how much power words have over us.       We also visited the Children's Center and asked them what they love to read about, as we are hoping to instill that love of reading what you like to read at a young age!   Thanks for a very successful week celebrating our freedom to read what we want to read!
In celebration of Banned Books Week, we will be releasing a book trailer featuring a different diverse banned book from September 26th to September 30th. Enjoy.
