We're Thinking Of "President" This Morning

While I was getting ready for work this morning, I listened to Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America. She told about some of the questions people were asked last night during the voting process. One question asked was: "Do you think your child has the chance of becoming President someday?"
Of course, like always, my brain began to tie in how either the question or the answer relates to our library.
When I got to work, I did some checking through the PINES Catalog System to see what we have about Presidents that we can offer to our patrons.
First, I wanted to see what we have for children. In our Children's Library are these books:

• The Encylcopedia of Presidents - This is a series of Junior Biographies, written by different authors, about all of the Presidents of the United States. Look for books with JB on the spine and the President's name.
• The Look-it-up Book of Presidents - by Wyatt Blassingame is a Juvenile Nonfiction (J973B) and
• Arthur Meets the President - by Marc Tolon Brown. This is an Easy Book with EB on the spine, and is one of many in the "Arthur" series.

Then for our older children, I found:

• The Modern American Presidency by Lewis L. Gould (973.9G) and
• The Complete Book of U.S. Presidents by William A. DeGregorio (973.0099D).

And not to forget the adults, there's Executive Orders, a book by Tom Clancy (Fiction Clancy), and the 2006 movie The Sentinel with Michael Douglas.

But those aren't the only items we have in this library about Presidents. There are plenty more. You just need to come to the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library, 204 Fifth Street, Southeast, in Moultrie, Georgia and see what we have.

Take advantage of your opportunity. Remember, the public library is open to everyone and it's your place to learn!
