Here’s the text:    “Linda Robinson Mansfield (Conn.) Middle School    “Robinson’s innovation and dedication has fostered a love of reading among Mansfield Middle School students. Despite a significant decline in enrollment, her literacy programs have resulted in increased circulation—from 17,033 books in 2010 to 27,064 in 2018. Robinson’s unique One School, One Read program brings text to life during lunchtime: She works with cafeteria staff to plan a meal that reflects a book’s setting; staff members dress up as the characters; and decorations, music, and props round out the spectacle, transforming the lunchroom into a living book.    “’Receiving this award and reading the nomination written by so many of my school staff has shown me just how much my community values what I do and the role I play in school culture,” Robinson says. “My favorite part of being a librarian is that I can take my strengths and passions to build programs or services for others. No other job could afford me the same wide range of challenges and the positive feedback that I make a difference.’”        Linda Williams |She/Her/Hers  | Youth Services Consultant, Division of Library Development |Linda.Williams at ct.gov |Office: (860) 704-2207  libguides.ctstatelibrary.org/dld/children | 786 S.
