345: How to use First Book Marketplace to Grow your Library Fast

If you're a teacher in a Title I School, you need to know about First Book Marketplace. I've heard about it in passing so many times, and this week I decided to dive in and figure out how it works. And boy, does it work. Today I just want to walk you through how this site works so that you can start taking advantage of its many resources as soon as possible. Now, if you're NOT a teacher in a Title I School, and you're also trying to find resources to support your wish to bring incredible books to your students, I'm going to refer you back to episode 56, The Dos and Don'ts of Donors Choose, where I'll walk you through the best way to get funding on that site.
