LLC - Lovely Lady Cheryl

LLC stands for Library Learning Commons, but in this case, we are changing it to Lovely Lady Cheryl to thank her for choosing to do her Mohawk College Library and Information Technician Diploma field placement right here at F. G. Miller High! We certainly got a great deal accomplished and 105 hours flew by with cataloguing, inventory preperation, amazing displays and AR activities! The Crusaders thank you for joining the CRU and wish you all the best in your library quest!
