Excerpt: A celebration of library learning is taking place this Friday at Luther Elementary School in Fort Atkinson.

Luther Elementary's school library program has been chosen as "outstanding" by the Wisconsin Educational Media and Technology Association.

Nancy Everhart, president of the American Association of School Librarians, will be visiting Luther Friday as part of her tour of school libraries nationwide.

"It's just a great honor for our librarian, Michelle Maniaci, to receive this award and be represented from the State of Wisconsin and nationally as one of the finest public school libraries in the state," Luther principal Dave Geiger said.

He said Maniaci and her colleagues have worked extremely hard to make the library the focal point of the building with technology, reading and other types of instruction that take place there
