August 2022
WELCOME TO THE TUSCALOOSA MAGNET SCHOOLS LIBRARY
Mrs. Busby - Library Media Specialist
I was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. I moved to Alabama in 2003 to attend the University of Alabama. I wanted to move somewhere with milder winters. I fell in love with Tuscaloosa during my 4 years at UA and decided to stay. I have been married for 12 years and have 3 children (Lee -11, Hadley-5, Wyatt-5). On the weekends we enjoy spending time with family and friends.
This is my 16th year in education. I have been at TMS for the past 13 years (since it opened in 2009). My first 12 years were teaching 3rd grade at TMSE. I became the TMS librarian in August of 2021. I have a BS degree in Elementary Education, a Masters in Library Media, and National Board certified in Middle Childhood Generalist. TMS is near and dear to my heart. It is an honor to serve in the role as the Library Media Specialist for first through eight grade students at Tuscaloosa Magnet Schools.

Reading at Home
Students can bring home their library books or through Classlink students have access to digital books with Sora and Myon 24/7.
Encourage your child to talk about what they’ve read and ask questions. Have your child add on to the story once it’s over. What happens to the characters? Where are they now? The conversation doesn’t have to end just because the book has!
