Library

The Goals 2000 Gifted Consortium donated several thousand dollars worth of books, videotapes, and monographs to the Johnson State College library.  The funds were made available from the unexpended portion of the grant awarded to Lamoille North Supervisory Union in June of 2001.  The hope is that these resources will help in continuing efforts to support gifted learners, their parents, and their teachers long beyond the conclusion of the grant funding in August of 2002.  Materials are available for borrowing through the statewide library system (visit your local library to order books via interlibrary loan).
