Since students have not been able to visit their school libraries as they usually do, librarians have gotten creative. They are bringing the library to the students.

At PBE, librarian Lisa Ruyack makes sure all students get their library experience. Toward the end of each day, she loads up her rolling library cart and makes the rounds. She stops by different grades on different days, with plenty to choose from for all of the students at that grade level.

On this particular day, fifth-grade students had their turn. It was Friday and many were returning books from the previous week and getting another for the upcoming weekend.

“Students like to have a book in their hands,” said Ms. Ruyack. “And for some of our youngest students, this is their first library experience. And they love to choose a book all by themselves. They’re so happy to have that opportunity.”
