The Joeten Kiyu Public Library celebrated National Bookmobile Day yesterday by going down to San Antonio Elementary School to honor one of their most active partners. SAES has been partnering with JKPL since 2011. <\/p>\n

\u201cOf the six Public School System schools we serve, they have been the most consistent, supportive, and enthusiastic about the \u2018Children of Our Homeland Bookmobile Service,\u2019\u201d said JKPL\u2019s technical services librarian Rosalyn Ajoste.<\/p>\n

According to Ajoste, SAES is the highest-performing school in terms of statistics and number of books read, circulation numbers, and number of children availing of Bookmobile services.<\/p>\n

\u201cCirculation stats in 2014 are already almost triple the total amount of books circulated for the entire 2013 alone. SAES numbers are already at 1,200 books circulating and their number continues to climb,\u201d Ajoste said.<\/p>\n

JKPL presented SAES with some sports equipment from Project CLAP that will be used to encourage health and fitness. The donations included a 5-gallon water jug, 10 large and 10 small hula hoops, a Hit n\u2019 Run T-ball set, nine pieces of gloves, four baseballs, two bats, three batter helmets, and one catcher helmet, one set of catcher\u2019s gear, one set of bases, and four large and two small basketballs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe entire school came out into the courtyard for a short 15-minute ceremony,\u201d Ajoste said.<\/p>\n

Ajoste said that JKPL thanks the administration and school librarian, Della Jean Castro-Angel, for continuing to invite the Bookmobile time after time to provide the children of SAES with access to books, e-books, and AV2 books.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would also like to recognize four key staff that work closely with the public schools: Xerxes Mangarero, Leoralyn Sablan, Erlinda Naputi, and Celina Foreman,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

In other news, 72 students, parents, and educators attended the Tinian Public Library\u2019s Read-A-Loud and Arts and Crafts Activity from kindergarten to 3rd grade.<\/p>\n

Lori Cruz of TPL extends their appreciation to donors who made their opening program a success: the Tinian Mayor Office, Office of Lt. Gov. Jude U. Hofschneider, Tinian Dynasty Hotel and Casino, Bridge Investment Group, 14th Tinian Municipal Council, Sen. Frank Cruz (R-Tinian), Sen. Frank Borja (Ind-Tinian), and TPL staff Ann Marie Crisostomo and Melissa Sanchez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
