Welcome Back!

While I know this is a bit belated, welcome to the 2011-12 school year!

The library has had a busier three months from July to September than we've ever had before with the fall NYSSMA festivals and the initial orders from the districts. It is great to have so much enthusiasm for the library and I hope, in these rather hard economic times, that all of the schools in our member districts are able to utilize our services to it's full advantage.

We added a number of new titles over the last six months (see previous postings) and have many, many more to add in the near future. As always, we will post the new titles here along with periodic updates in the files on the BOCES site.

Also, watch your inbox in the new future for a new manual we put together on how to use the library.

Finally, if you have new music teachers in your district, please e-mail their information to me so that I can update our mailing list (roger_wink@boces.monroe.edu).
