The Early Childhood Education Department at Copper Mountain College recently donated 45 young children’s books to the college’s Greenleaf Library. The Library now has a new childhood section with books are bilingual, culturally diverse, and inclusive.
Greenleaf head librarian Derek Monypeny said, “The Greenleaf Library is thrilled to partner with Kim Martin and the Child Development department to create our new Early Childhood Collection. I’m especially gratified that the collection includes Spanish-language books, as well as books depicting people and stories from a range of different cultural and ethnic backgrounds. I’m sure this collection will become a popular and well-used resource for our students.”
The books will benefit students who need children’s literature for assignments, students who visit with children, students who work at the local preschools, and students who do not yet have a local library card.
