Missing Books….can you help?

A well used and loved library, sometimes means lost and damaged books.  Currently we are seeking missing books from several series in our library.  Many of these are no longer in print but perhaps you have one on your shelf that needs a new home?  If you have any of the book titles below that you would like to donate to John Stubbs library, please contact the Teacher-Librarian atscave@sd62.bc.ca.

Merci!
