BRADBURY LIBRARY NOVEMBER SHARE
NEWS SHARED WITH BRADBURY STAFF FROM THE LIBRARY
Overdues are BEWILDERING...
*Someone asked me the other day how I feel about classrooms borrowing 30-50 books for their students to enjoy... YES, ABSOLUTELY, PLEASE!
ROOM TO READ!
December 3rd-December 19th Bradbury will be fundraising with the hopes of making enough for opening 2-3 new libraries.
Drowning in new books, still!
TUMBLEBOOKS: NEW SUBSCRIPTION
All about TumbleBook Library: The TumbleBookLibrary is a collection of TumbleBooks (animated, talking picture books) with fiction, non-fiction and foreign language titles, Read-Alongs (chapter books with sentence highlighting and narration but no animation), TumbleTV which consists of pre-set playlists of a sequence of books, Tumble Puzzles & Games, and TumbleResources for teachers and students. Plus there are videos from National Geographic as well.
So how do I access this Debbie?
1. Go to this link and enjoy! Tumblebooks
2. If you are prompted to login, check in with me on the easy Username/Password!!
What about iPads Debbie?
Answer from Tumblebooks: Students, teachers and patrons logging onto TumbleBooks with an iPad will be pointed directly to our TumbleBooks for Mobile Devices site. It looks exactly like our regular website but all the content in every category will be iPad compatible!!
