For those that don't know, I've spent the last 5 years as a third grade teacher in San Antonio--and I LOVED being in the classroom. Part of that time I was also a full-time Master's student working on my degree to become a librarian. This past April I was offered a librarian position in a PK-6th grade library. My dream job!
I've spent this summer all over Pinterest and the internet trying to find ideas to make this library a place students and teachers will be excited about visiting. In my searching, I've learned that there are many more teaching blogs than librarian blogs. I'm hoping that one day a newbie to the librarian field will stumble upon this and hopefully find some inspiration. It's also a great place for my friends and family to stay updated!
So here's the deal.....I've inherited a library with over 40,000 books, serves over 1,000 students, and has many storage areas/rooms filled with resources. Below are some pictures I took when I first got my keys and saw the library for the first time. Follow along with me as I transform this area and program :)
The foyer/entry way into the library:
The elementary side:
The intermediate side:
The office:
The circulation desk:
BIG changes are coming! Stay tuned...
Seems like a big library! And you get an office now! :) Have fun!
