Book Request forms: If there are some books that your child would like to read and we do not have them in the library, please encourage them to fill out a book request form located at the library front desk. Once again this year, I will use the student requests to shape my book-buying this year. In order for you child to reach their reading goals this year, they should be reading at least 30 minutes nightly. If you have any questions, you can contact your child’s English teacher or myself at lisa.munro@tdsb.on.ca. Happy Reading!
