John Pittard Elementary Media Center
 
 
I’m so glad you chose to visit this site.  I hope, too, you will find time to visit us in our beautiful new library.  The Walker Library at MTSU doesn’t have anything on us!  In keeping with the traditional look of the building, our Media Center has an incredible amount of dark wood bookshelves and the curved Circulation Desk is gorgeous.  We have tables at which teachers can bring their students to work on Projects, computers where the children can do research, comfy furniture where the students can read, and a perfect area for Storytime.  Our collection of books, magazines, newspapers, and other media is growing every day.  Our children seem to love coming to the library and we encourage them to come as often as they can.  
 
Happy Reading!
 
Our Media Center has purchased The Enterprise Edition of Accelerated Reader, which means we no longer have to pay a per test fee, but actually have access to all the tests that are published by AR.  It will be an ongoing project this year to recode our books so that the children know on which books they can test.  Since there are now 103,000 titles, you may want to check them from home.  You may go to    www.arbookfind.com to check a title.  It will give you the Reading Level, number of points, and the Quiz Number.  Please encourage your child to write down that Quiz Number as it is the easiest way to get to a Test.
