    My name is Bethany Berry and this is my eighth year as the Library Media Specialist at Madison Avenue Upper Elementary.  I taught 4th grade at Madison Avenue Upper Elementary for 6 years.  I also taught 4th grade at Bogue Chitto School for 2 years.  I was a Literacy Specialist for Madison County Schools for a year.  The library is a place where I can combine my favorite things- kids, books, and organization.  I have such a fun job and I look forward to coming to work in such a great place each day.  I am married to "D" Berry and we have two daughters, Bella Berry and Baylor Berry.  Bella is 10 and in 5th Grade at Madison Avenue Upper Elementary.  Baylor is 5 years old and in Kindergarten at Madison Avenue Elementary.  

    The Madison Avenue Upper Elementary library system is monitored using an automated search system with a catalog feature to search for needed materials.  Our library card catalog and circulation system is automated through Follett Destiny software.  State-of-the-art search stations for student use are distributed throughout the library for research and internet usage. There are 7 search stations dedicated to student and staff use in our media center.  Our mission is to promote an interest in reading of all kinds and to provide a climate supporting research and literary appreciation.  Students visit the library at least once a week to check out a book and participate in a reading lesson.
