[ISLMA-Share] Weeding ?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

My junior high history teacher is always in favor of keeping accurate
history books. However, use is a critical factor.

I tend to weed if the reading level is too difficult for those who will use
it.  Sometimes I have weeded and given to a classroom who uses a topic.

Weeding is a challenge!  Good luck!
