This is a group open to all librarians but specific to international school librarians. Since we usually don't have a district or neighboring schools to rely on, let's create our own network here.

Hi everyone,
I'm working on my MLIS and am trying to create a collection (for my class) for an international school. Does anyone have resources on proportions or percentages in your international school libraries?
Thanks! Elizabeth

Kids are supposed to ask others what they have and read them. ? I'm not sure how it'll work. A couple of the MS English teachers are interested in having poems read through the PA system. I'm just doing one poetry reading. Where's your poster from--very cool--did you make it??

- Hi Ann,
On the author news front: I went to Hong Kong a couple of weeks to see Markus Zusak, author of the Book Thief. He was wonderful--very casual, funny, and unpretentious. The students in the audience loved him. Unfortunately, he doesn't make many school visits anymore--he says he doesn't need to.
What are you doing for Poetry Month? I'm doing a poetry reading and 'A Poem in Your Pocket.'

- Hi Ann,
Wow, this is a very cool group! I'm not quite ready to take the plunge yet but am gathering info. I will go to the sites you mentioned and daydream a little though.
Thanks!

- Hello Ann! I do not know Dianna Pratt. Is she at Singapore American School? I am at International Community School in Singapore. Our school is the only international Christian school in Singapore that teaches an American curriculum. I hope to go and visit SAS to get to know their librarian so that we might do some things together. We were in Beijing two years ago for a visit and loved it! Good luck!!

- Hi Ann-
Greetings from The International School Yangon! I just joined this Ning recently and was happy to see an international teacher's group- thanks for getting it started!
One of my colleagues, Marianne Johnstone will be joining you in the library in Chennai next year! I am sorry to be losing her as a colleague and friend but I am sure she is heading to a grand adventure!
Looking forward to sharing ideas!
