The Children's Librarian at my local library just asked me for suggestions for a homeschool book section they want to create. For a moment my mouth just hung open like a fish.... there was a traffic jam in my brain!
Our local library had a binder that could be checked out which was like homeschooling 101 and had specific info explaining the laws, complete with sample withdrawal and letters of intent. It was incredibly helpful to a newbie!
I'm not sure what they ended up ordering but I'm hopeful they ordered some of the books on my wishlist ;) As a newbie the thought of choosing and then buying curriculum that we might not like is very stressful!
