Check your bookshelves for any extra books, because the Ellington Middle School Library is hosting a Book Swap.
From January 31 through February 4, students can drop off up to ten books in the library. Please be sure all donated books are gently used and age appropriate (grades 5-9) fiction books. When the books are dropped off, students will receive a ticket for each book (up to five) that can then be traded in the following week for a different book. Any extra books that are donated will provide a bigger swap selection and will be sold towards the end of the swap.
Students return with their tickets from February 7 through February 11, and trade each ticket for a 'new' book. Each ticket will also be entered in a raffle for a chance to win a Barnes and Noble gift card.

Any remaining books will be sold for $1 each on February 14 through February 18.
