In the Spotlight

2007 Create Your Own Book Contest

Every year, during National Library Week, the Library holds the Create Your Own Book contest. Students create their own books on any topic and a panel of library staff chooses the top books as winners.

Every year, the librarians have a difficult time trying to choose from so many wonderful and creative books.

See the truly outstanding books created for 2007!
