READING COMMITTEE: The Reading Committee helps plan and implement a variety of literacy programs throughout the year including author visits, Read Across America, family literacy nights, April is Poetry Month, Battle of the Books, etc. Each year the committee plans a menu of engaging literacy events for the year and then works hard to make reading and literacy fun at NB. Planning meetings are usually after school, although the librarian can be flexible to accommodate work schedules.. However, you can still help out even if you cannot attend planning meetings, as many tasks can be done from home on your own time and many events happen in the evening--so there really is something to fit every schedule. In addition to the planners and creators, we need people to create decorations, gather supplies, send out invitations, etc.
