Welcome to the Inglenook at Cold Spring School Library...a cozy place by the fire to discuss children's literature and the wonder of reading and learning.
At the moment that we persuade a child, any child, to cross that threshold,
that magic threshold into a library, we change their lives forever, for the
better. ~~Barack Obama (from a speech to the American Library Association June 25, 2005)

About Me
- janet reid
- I graduated from UCLA in 1970 with a degree in Art History and then earned my California Teaching Credential from UCLA in 1972. After teaching 4th grade in the inner city for 2 years I moved to Santa Barbara and founded the Santa Barbara Center for Educational Therapy. In 1989, with a desire to return to the public schools, I was fortunate to be hired as a school librarian and I'm starting my 20th year at Cold Spring School. I have always been a bookworm and love teaching so this is the perfect job for me!

That is really cool. Also love that fireplace.
Wow, Well Done! What a great use of technology in the school library. I am currently finishing up a Master's in Library Science from Simmons College in Boston, Ma. This semester I have been taking a course on integrating new technologies into the school library program. This is a perfect example of things we need to do in order to let the world know about the exciting things that happen within the library.
Olive did a wonderful job! Such a smart cat ;-)I'm a librarian in Chattanooga, TN and I'm very impressed with what you all have done! Good job. I'll be back later to see and hear another book review! Thanks!
I appreciated the fact that Olive mentioned what age groups would enjoy reading The Great Brain. Several times I have searched the web trying to verify whether my boys are ready for books I enjoyed as a child.
