TeachingLibrarian9.3 22 Ontario School Library Association Ambassadors took pride in this honour. The Library Ambassadors were also the students selected to greet and escort visiting authors invited to our school for Canada Book Day. At the end of the school year we planned another field trip to a local book distributor to select books for the library. Again the students were expected to be familiar with the col- lection so they could choose wisely. And yes, the Library Ambassadors also shelve books, but this makes up a minor part of their responsibilities. In the spring the Library Ambassadors created a presenta- tion to take to the grade 3 and 4 classes to promote the pro- gram and encourage these students to apply next year. They were extremely proud of all they accomplished and wished for it to continue in the years to come. I found this year to be rewarding beyond all expectations and I look forward to con- tinuing this program in future years. z Photos courtesy of Twentieth Street Junior Public School in Etobicoke.
