Last fall, Perkins Library hosted the DPS High School Media Coordinators meeting. The focus of the meeting was to discuss the book, //Reading for Their Life// by Alfred Tatum. When we decided to try for the Doing Good in the Neighborhood grant, we thought that an African-American boys book club would be a great idea. That was the main focus to this grant. It included funds for refreshments, an author Skype visit and the large TV to present with. The grant also included some funding for a Hispanic family breakfast book session. I contacted Dr. Kisha Daniels from NCCU to find out if she had some NCCU education students who would like to facilitate the book discussions.
