5th graders were all eyes and ears during a visit from author and illustrator Xavier Garza! Did we mention he’s also a Northside ISD middle school art teacher? Talk about local talent! 🎨📚 #HispanicHeritageMonth #AuthorVisit #GlenoaksPride #nisdunstoppable

How did you start your day? I started mine with the students and families of ⁦@NISDGlenoaks⁩. The library was filled with excitement. What a great idea to build community with buddy classes and families.

Happy National Library Week and belated School Librarian Day to our outstanding GO librarian! 📚 Today, Mrs. Flores hosted our 1st grade Poetry Slam and it was poetic. 🖤 xitter.cf/LisaBalderas7/status/1…

Today I returned to the spot where I used to sit every single day of the summer growing up. ❤️📚 We didn’t have enough money for vacation, but thanks to the incredible librarians of @Anaheim_Library I always journeyed through books! #SupportOurLibraries

Another winning session at #TxLA2021. "Your messaging should never be the same for all of the stakeholders you communicate with." You wouldn't present info the same to different groups in person, why would you on social media? @bookwormbrookek @HeatherHornor @TxASL #neisdlibs

Are you looking for a fun, socially-distanced activity after your Thanksgiving dinner? Do the children need to get outside? Could you use a short walk? NEISD libraries have you covered - come check out a StoryWalk! Currently available at campuses below... #NEISDlibs #NEISDcares
Our library election mirrored our country's. We had both in-person and absentee (virtual) voting. The race was too close to call on election day. Decisions had to be made about extending ballot counting to allow for late virtual ballots. There was even talk of a recount!
The votes are in! Mustangs in kinder - 2nd grade learned about each candidate’s traits before casting their ballots. After counting both in person and virtual ballots, we can now declare Pigeon as the 20-21 El Dorado Library Mascot. #neisdlibs @NEISDLibrary @NEISD @The_Pigeon

Graphic novels are often the gateway to bigger and more in-depth books. We need to let kids read what they want to read and we should share in their excitement!
