Meeting times and locations

Coaches: Please let the library know when and where your teams will be meeting. We are often asked when teams are meeting and can also remind team members about meetings if we know when and where you are meeting.

If you would like to check out a book from our library, each coach may borrow one book at a time.

New Season

Thank you coaches for volunteering to be part of our THIRD battle season. We have 101 students participating and 23 teams in grades 3-8!

The Greeley Battle of the Books program is loosely based on the Alaska Association of School Librarians Battle of the Books. Many of our books are the same and you can read more about their program at the AkASL web site. On the AkASL web site, there is even a coaches corner with some tips and ideas.

Right now, be sure to start meeting with your team and have team members commit to reading specific book titles--especially over their nice long break in December!
