Is the library still leaking? Did the janitors put new tiles in the library?
No, the library is fine now. The roofing men came and fixed the holes that caused rain water to leak onto some ceiling tiles during Labor Day weekend and caused a big mess. The library is cleaned up now. I'm still waiting on the ceiling tiles to be replaced, but it should be soon.

Why do we have to wait 10 minutes before we can play games?
We spend the first 10 minutes of library time to look for books and/or read silently because I,m giving you time to look for good books you'll actually want to check out and read. You don't need to just grab any random book and check out right away so you can quickly get to the computers, lego tables, etc. I want you to take time to find something you'll enjoy. That's also why you should try reading the books you are thinking about checking out: So you know for sure it's something you'll enjoy.
What is the library's name?
It is the Flasher Public School Library.
What car do you drive?

Why do some people get to go on the computers every time?
We really should share the computers in the library; we should let others have a turn playing games on the computers. Unfortunately, I don't currently have a solid plan to make sure everyone gets a turn at the computers, but I'm open to suggestions.
What is your favorite color?
Blue

Why did you become a librarian?
My mom used to work as a librarian at a middle school in Bismarck. I've spent much of my time in the library while I was growing up, and I found it to be a great place to hang out and find interesting books to read. I've also started learning how important it is being a librarian, like my mom, who is not only there to encourage a love of reading but also to help you in many other ways, like many other teachers and superheros do. A librarian is not just someone who checks out books, they are also a champion for the freedom to read and access information. I like feeling like a superhero and I love helping kids learn, so that's why I became a teacher and a librarian.
