The Beginning

This blog is about to get official! After a few years of volunteering, I am now a school librarian. I hope to use this blog to document my progress in developing their library program. It will also be a diary of the development of my own skills as a teacher librarian.

Baseline Notes: 

-Non fiction collection hasn't been updated since about 2005?

-Fiction has been updated via title one purchases by school based manager and donations from local library

-No technology integration in library...classrooms have smart boards

-Minimal shelving due to relocation of library

-Summer reading program implemented by school based manager has been successful.

-Collaboration with local college students on book fair has been successful in past. 

-School based manager has done an excellent job of getting kids excited about reading...book give-a-ways, work study pay for library workers, general support of the library program.
