Benton High School | March 2011
benton library media centerOUR STATS FOR CIRCULATION . . .
held steady for the month of February despite the many snow days. Our new books from the fall carried our print circulation. Our circulation stats are on course to reach 15,000 again this school year!
We’ve seen a great turnover in the Top 10 Books category every single month this year! This month, we saw a number of old favorites enter the list from the previous Gateway Reader’s Award Nominees.
We’ve had some very steady circulation statistics for both new books and the existing collection!
Keep showing us your book love, Benton High School!!!
--Mrs. Corey and Mrs. Halter

OUR STATS FOR RESEARCH . . .included great projects centering on the earthquake and nuclear incident in Japan as well as the difference between primary and secondary sources!
