What a bittersweet story. Told from one junior high girl‘s pov, this story deals with the effects of bullying, but its main point is how friendship and love of family and devoted teachers can make a huge difference in a young person‘s life. I work with K-8 students and even as early as 3rd and 4th grade I see the need for a story like this one. Highly recommend to everyone who enjoys a good story. 😊

All of Us in Our Own Lives | Manjushree Thapa

My first interlibrary loan came in. I had no idea that it includes books from across the province and not just the nearest city. Why they get them from libraries nowhere near here instead of a library close by when they have them in stock seems odd. Only allowed to request two at a time so I went with a Nepal read for #FoodAndLit and a short book set in Iceland.

TheKidUpstairs I know at our library, it's all about which library agrees to send it first. We don't really get a say in which library we request a book from, it just goes out as a general request in VDX. I always like seeing the different places books travel to us from, and looking up libraries and towns I've never heard of. 4mo

Jess861 @TheKidUpstairs It's neat to see how it works - doesn't bug me just thought it was odd when the city we live closes to has 7 copies on the shelves, lol. Opens up more options with all the libraries though 😊 - can't believe I've never used this service before! 4mo

KathyWheeler Libraries also have agreements with other libraries about fees and such. My university prioritized requests by those agreements and whether or not we could get a book without having to pay fees. Our interlibrary loan person also had a good feel for which libraries were faster, and we also prioritized asking for books from libraries that were within our consortium. Sometimes the closest libraries don‘t meet the criteria for making the request. 4mo

Jess861 @KathyWheeler @TheKidUpstairs - So interesting to learn about the process! Thank you so much for all the insight!! 4mo
