By diversifying our collection, organizing books in thematic bins, and presenting "book talks" in the media center, students have explored a wider selection of books. Our Top 10 most circulated books report often includes titles such as Girls Who Code and series that were being overlooked. In addition, our students have been more willing to check out books that match their ability to read because we have purchased some appealing chapter book series on 2nd and 3rd grade reading levels.
Our students look forward to new chapter books featuring popular themes like superheroes, scary stories, mysteries, and realistic fiction. We want to provide access to books that reflect the community we serve, and we are committed to adding books to our collection that feature characters who our students identify with.
Over the past several years, we have focused our efforts on biographies, history, and both fiction and non-fiction picture books. The chapter books, young reader series, and comic fiction in our collection are a mix of popular favorites and dated titles that students are not drawn to. Because students often rush to check out the most popular series, I want to acquire a variety of chapter books featuring African American main characters. Some would become part of the main library collection while others would be checked out to be used in 2nd through 5th grade classrooms as a supplement to classroom libraries.
