[LM_NET] Reading at work

[Wendy Carroll <wcarroll@RPPS.NET>]

 I would LOVE to be able to read at work, but with 30 classes a week, it's
impossible.  However, I do read a lot at home.  I take home about 20 books
a month, I try to get new ones from the public library so I can decide
whether or not to order them for my school for the following year.  I read
about 50-75 kids books over the summer.  I also write reviews for the
local conglomerate of public & school librarians, so that's an additional
10 or so every 2 months.  I visit Barnes & Noble at least once a week to
check for new titles (especially picture books), I read SLJ and choose
books that way, and read ones that seem interesting to me.  Of course, I
can't read everything, but I do read every book that I order for my
school, which is about 300 books (many being picture books and beginning
chapter books).
