After taking over the library last year, it is quite obvious that non-fiction needs a major overhaul. The average copyright date in our non-fiction section is 1993. This is quite a disservice to our growing students with curious minds. It no longer serves our students to have non-fiction books with yellowed pages, dated narratives about historical figures, musty tellings of mythology, and memoirs from the 70s and 80s.
Mythology and survival stories, biographies and memoirs of historical and contemporary figures all support our curriculum and learning objectives. In our school, we cover ancient civilizations, medieval times, and our colonial heritage in social studies. Our english department introduces stories of youth navigating life during a war in Inside Out and Back Again and Diary of Anne Frank.
With your support, these prospective additions to our non-fiction collection will help bridge the importance of history and how another's experience can have a great impact on our today. By using a format that draws them in and featuring modern public figures, the library can adapt and connect with the students in new ways.
