The Buzzin' Blurb, or not 6/27/2013
>> Thursday, June 27, 2013
Normally, this would be a review of a book I have recently read, but I am in Chicago today getting ready for ALA 2013! It's my first time at the big event, and I am so happy I am here. I'll be tweeting and blogging from the conference starting tomorrow, so keep your eyes open. My twitter handle is @the_library_bee and of course you know how to find me here! I'm so excited! And very tired, I had to get up early this morning to get to my plane on time. See you tomorrow!

>> Tuesday, June 25, 2013
So here's a story about an issue that plagues Elementary Librarians, and I want to know how you would handle it. Unlike middle and high schools, elementary students are often not charged overdue fees when returning a book late. But what happens if they lose it?
Movie Mondays 6/24/2013
>> Monday, June 24, 2013
Welcome back to Movie Mondays! I was in Pennsylvania for the weekend with very limited internet access. I'm currently getting ready for my trip to Chicago for ALA 2013, but I've got one movie for today's post. Let's get started!
Buzzin' Blurb 6/20/13
>> Thursday, June 20, 2013
Here is the start of my book review feature, the Buzzin' Blurb. Every week I will review a book that I have recently read. For now, this feature will hold all of my book reviews, although as this blog grows, that may change. I'll do my best to make them spoiler free, and will give warnings if I think there is a spoiler. For today, we have the recently released short story e-book/audiobook from Rick Riordan, Son of Sobek. Click the link above to read the whole review!
It's Time for Summer Reading!
>> Wednesday, June 19, 2013
Yesterday was the last day of school for Fairfax County, which means most, if not all, of the Northern Virginia school systems are now out of school for the summer. That means it's time for the Summer Reading Programs to begin. There are a lot of different programs in this area, so I will list them with a small blurb below.
Movie Monday 6/17/2013
>> Monday, June 17, 2013
Welcome to Movie Mondays. Each Monday you will get a post about upcoming movies (and possibly television programs) based on YA or children's books. It may contain links to posters or trailers, or news about the movies. For today, we're only going to look at three movies, Catching Fire, The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug and Ender's Game.
Meet the Library Bee
>> Sunday, June 16, 2013
Hello and welcome to the Library Bee! This brand new blog represents a new transitional phase in my life. I have recently returned to school to get my Specialist in Library and Information Science degree and my School Library Media Specialist certification. I have started taking my required education courses and I am currently enrolled in my Young Adult Materials course. I've started this blog to post book reviews, book talks and information pertaining to youth and children's library services. I expect I will post about upcoming movies, and possibly video games as time goes on as well. I currently work as a substitute teacher, and I can't wait to get the opportunity to work in a school library. I will be attending the ALA annual meeting at the end of the month and I will be blogging from the meeting regularly. I'm very excited about some soon to be released books, and I'll be posting review information here as well, starting with this Tuesday, and a release I've been waiting for since early this year!
