Planning the new Library – Week 3

Mrs Robinson — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 16:34:22 +0000

The stock-take was completed last week and an Initial Assessment Report on the Library was sent to the Headmaster and my Line Manager, Mr Haddon. This will enable us to have a baseline against which to measure the future development of the Library.

This week, I am continuing with the following things:

Assessing and weeding all stock
Cleaning, repairing and re-cataloguing remaining stock
Designing and printing new guiding and signage
Beginning to plan displays – particularly with Open Morning in mind
Getting to know staff and pupils
Developing the Library Online Website

The Library is now open at lunchtimes as well as after school for all pupils – see previous post. A small collection of magazines has been started. I am also planning how to involve the pupils as Library Helpers – note not Librarians!

Now, I also have to think about how to promote the services of the Library and especially this website – more on that soon!
