Navajo Pine High School Celebrates Native American Authors

Navajo Pine High School in Navajo, New Mexico is celebrating the rich works of Native-American authors thanks to Reader To Reader, Inc. The high school’s library has a growing collection of Native American literature, including works by Sherman Alexie and Louise Erdrich, and is actively spreading the word throughout the district.

Navajo Pine’s librarian, Carla Clauschee, will be conducting a workshop on Native-American literature for area district librarians. The goal is to get more teachers and librarians to feature Native-American authors in their classes.

“We have the best collection of Native authors at Navajo Pine thanks to Reader To Reader,” Clauschee says. “Thanks for everything you have done for our school.” Reader To Reader, Inc. is a public charity that brings books free of charge to under-resourced school libraries across the United States. The award-winning organization serves over 240 schools in 29 states by recycling used books that are in top condition so that they can find new homes in school libraries. They also supply new books to schools purchased with funds from private donations and grants.
