And ya know what? The kid is absolutely RIGHT. Our library DOES suck! But I’m trying to improve things. I would love to know more about e-books and what some of the best ones are. I don’t think it would solve all our problems in my library, but it might help alleviate some of the ennui toward our current collection. Once the rest of the SMARTBoards get installed, that might alleviate some of the problem, becasue then we’ll have room to weed again.
I feel like I’ve been weeding since I got here, and I still haven’t gotten a chance to get to the 900s yet. And we’re not just talking biographies and autobiographies, we’re talking the entire history section. Other than the scant few titles I’ve been able to scrounge up via teacher recs and stuff I’ve just known to order because we need it, the entire history and geography section makes me want to cry. Hopefully after CHristmas things will get better. I’ll be unveiling the plan soon!
