We're SUPER EXCITED about the MCSC #BookBus! It runs daily thru the week, stopping in neighborhoods in M'ville & Ross Township. See the schedule & our media page. Avoid the summer slip by encouraging reading! *Share @mhsbooksRfun

Yesterday, I went with a group of administrators to support the Lady Pirate wrestling team as they faced Valpo. #PiratePride

Today @JohnWoodSchool 4th graders participated in an election after learning about the election process. They voted for their favorite book after showing their IDs and signing in. Students waited patiently to vote. Thanks @MerrillvilleMHS PNN students for covering the story.

I was able to thank outgoing @ALALibrary president @Lessa4Libraries for her work this past year for the American Library Association. What an awesome conference! #ALAAC2023

[Janelle Bowen @read4fun4ever]

Can’t wait to read Something, Someday written by @TheAmandaGorman & illustrated by Christian Robinson @theartoffunnews. So wonderful to get to know them at #ALAAC2023 where they met in person for the first time!
