The Santa Cruz (CA) Sentinel (11/2, Kelly) reports that the Santa Cruz school board recently voted to "restored $132,494 for salaries of certificated librarians." This school year, elementary school librarians' hours were cut by 30 percent and middle school librarians hours were cut 20 percent. However, the school board's decision will bring full-time librarians back to elementary and middle schools. The decision, said Supervisor Gary Bloom, came after "last month's state budget did not contain the anticipated cuts to the class-size reduction program for kindergarten through third grade students."
