This has been another slow week as far as hours are concerned. There is so much going on at school in the Spring that it is difficult to balance teaching full time, getting hours, working on class work, and having a family. Thankful to be about half way through!
Our school is about to change our software system from RenWeb to Sycamore. So, this week I communicated with our sales representative there to understand more about what their library system will be like and how we are going to be able to make the switch as seamless as possible.
This week I also worked more on cataloging books. It was discovered that there were several more boxes of books in an old storage room that had been donated but never gone through. It is interesting weeding through donated books. There were several volumes from the 1990s about parenting strategies. While some information in these books might be valuable, it does not fit the audience our library is intended for. Much of the same information may also be found online. Our library is so small that it is important for us to make good choices about what items we include.
Next week is our book fair, it will be fun for the students and hopefully make great strides for money for classrooms as well.
