Editor: In dismay about this morning's (June 14) front-page report of a book shortage in Bulloch County schools, I suggest that the school board may need to reallocate some funds. According to the Herald's Al Hackle, board of education member Anshul Jain "noted a decrease of about $80,000 in a line item for books...," and complained that "There are teachers teaching with a single novel for the entire class." Jain described that condition as "countywide."
