Welcome
Welcome to the Briarmeadow Charter School Library! We have worked hard to reinvent the BCS library into a welcoming space where students can explore themselves and their worlds.
BCS Library Lady
My name is Mrs. Hartling, and I am the BCS Media Specialist. Basically, I'm the library lady! I have been in education for 22 years. I have a bachelor’s degree in Literature from the University of Houston, and I completed my graduate degree at the University of St. Thomas. I am certified in 6-12 ELA and in Reading, and I have a master’s in education with a Reading Specialist focus.
I love helping students build their reading lives. I look forward to helping everyone find the perfect book!
