Library Online

Mrs Robinson has been back in school working over the Easter Holidays! She is not completely better yet, but is hoping that she will be able to return next term working part-time for the next few weeks.

You will be able to see some of the things she has been doing when you come into the Library. To help you find books more easily, she has been making new shelf labels:

Fiction Shelf Labels

Non-fiction Shelf Labels

Mrs Robinson is looking forward to seeing everyone at The Dixie Grammar School in the Summer Term!

Here is a rough version of the plan for our library refurbishment. There are still some areas to be “tweaked” and improved, but at least it will give you an idea of what it will look like:

If you click on the image above, you will be able to see a larger version. Please add comments on this post as I would like to have feedback from the school community and other visitors to the site!

This week, I am having a few issues with this site! Images will not upload properly – so this post will have to be text only until I have managed to find the solution.

Visiting other school libraries

I have been asking around for suitable libraries to visit in order to gather as many ideas as possible. Last week, I began to compile a “wish list” so that I could clarify my thinking about the new library. I have now contacted a range of colleagues and have some visits in the pipeline.

Library design

There are a lot of library designers and furniture suppliers out there and I have been in touch with quite a few to ask if they can send pictures of their designs. I am planning a display for the Library that we can use during Open Morning and also to inspire the students and staff.
