New Book Day at Ross Woodward - 250 checkouts in one day!


Hundreds of students at Ross Woodward participated in the first annual New Book Day, the brainchild of Alicia L. Cook, the library media specialist. All teachers were invited (see invitation below) for a book exchange the day before the holiday break. Classes were booked every half hour. Students browsed using colored shelf markers, then used their specially made library cards (see photo) at the self-checkout stations to check out their books. Each student left with a new bookmark as well.
